Strawberry and Thyme Jam
Once you get a taste of homemade jam, there's no going back. At least that's my case. I enjoy cooking jam as much as eating them. Pectin is a time saver if you don't feel like spending hours behind the stove. You can omit it if you have time to kill, or if you don't mind runny jam. And to make your homemade jam special, add thyme, or whatever herb you like.

I always make strawberry jam at this time of year. Homemade strawberry jam is delicious.Even if the jam is runny after simmering for 10-15 minutes, it will thicken when cooled. If it still doesn't thicken, simmer a bit more.It has quite a mild sweetness, so you can enjoy it in many ways, on bread, with yogurt, in desserts, etc. Recipe by pastis009

My light strawberry banana jam. It's not as red as normal people would think it should be because I used light grape juice instead of sugar.

For children to remember.Since the jam thickens as it cools, if you boil it down exactly to your ideal consistency, it will become too thick. Stop just before it reaches the ideal thickness. Recipe by cafe-cafe -

Strawberry Tomato (Physalis) Jam Strawberry Tomato (Physalis) Jam
Edible strawberry tomatoes don't really have a unique taste of their own (if I had to describe it, it would be like a faint tomato taste) so I can't eat a lot of fresh ones in one go.＊Please adjust the amount of sugar according to the tartness of the tomatoes.＊ The jam will taste like non-sour and non-bitter orange marmalade in the end.
