For Novice Jam Makers: Strawberry Jam

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

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Remove the blossom end of the strawberries, then rinse. Thoroughly drain in a colander.
- 2
Put the strawberries in a pot, coat with sugar, sprinkle lemon juice, and lightly toss. Let sit for about an hour (Don't heat it yet.)
- 3
After about an hour, the sugar will melt and the strawberries will release moisture, indicating that it is ready to be cooked. Simmer on low-medium heat.
- 4
After simmering for a while, the strawberries will produce scum. Skim off the scum several times.
- 5
After simmering for about 30 minutes, the strawberries will turn bright red. When the sauce thickens, it's done. (As shown in the photo, it's ready when you are able to see the bottom of the pan while mixing.)
- 6
Transfer to a sterilized jar, and seal with a lid while hot. Once it cools, store in the refrigerator.

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.
