Home made strawberry jam

I had excess strawberries and instead of it wasting away, I thought of making my own strawberry jam. This jam is clean, fresh and free of preservatives.
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Wash the strawberries thoroughly. Pat dry with a clean kitchen towel and slice into small bits.
- 2
On a medium heat, place a non stick pan or heavy bottom pot. Add the strawberries and sugar. Stir
- 3
The mixture become runny as the sugar dissolves. Squeeze in the lemon juice. Cook this for 25-30 minutes.
- 4
You will notice that the consistency thickens as it cooks and the colour darkens. To know if you have reach the right consistency, place a plate in the freezer for 5-10 minutes. Then pour a spoonful of the jam on the cold plate, let it sit for a minute, then move the plate to the right and left to check it's stability.

I make this every year whenever strawberries are in season.I love the delicious and luxurious homemade taste of strawberry preserves. But I prefer to eat expensive strawberries plain.This time, I found small strawberries for a great price. At times like that, I don't hesitate to make jam.Be sure to carefully remove the scum, and to slowly simmer and stir without scorching. When you stop simmering, it'll be thick like a sauce, but after it cools down, it will harden to a jam-like consistency. Recipe by Orihime mama cookpad.japan -

Crushed Strawberry Jam Crushed Strawberry Jam
When I spread strawberry preserves (with large strawberry chunks), if I spread it on sandwiches or on bread, sometimes it's too runny and messy, which makes it hard to eat. Preserves look presentable, but I went for practicality and made this crushed jam instead.●If you simmer the strawberries for a long time on low heat the colour will go bad, so that's why it's cooked on high heat. (You should avoid simmering for more than 20 minutes.) ●If you microwave the lemon for 10 seconds, it will be easier to squeeze. ●If you don't have a masher, crush the strawberries with a ladle or spatula.

Easy Strawberry Jam in a Microwave Easy Strawberry Jam in a Microwave
This is a strawberry jam I make every year. I've often made it in a pot, but making it in the microwave takes only a short time and has the best color. 1 package only needs three 5 minute heating sessions. It can be stored in the freezer.Make in a large bowl. The reason for heating it in 3 sets of 5 minutes is so that you can remove the scum. It doesn't take a lot of fuss, but if you remove the scum, you'll have a lovely jam. Recipe by kikimidori cookpad.japan
