Easy Strawberry Jam

Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 quarts strawberries, about 4 cups
  • 2 Cups sugar
  • 4,5 pint jars
  • Pomona's Pectin or other pectin source

Instructions

  • Add strawberries, lemon juice, and 2 teaspoons of calcium water to a 5-quart pot, bring to a boil.
  • Mix 2 teaspoons of pectin powder and sugar in a bowl.
  • Add sugar mixture to strawberries and return to a boil. Stirring frequently to not burn on the bottom.
  • Once the mixture has been brought to the second boil it is ready to pour up into your hot, sterilized jars.
  • Follow the directions on the pectin product that you use for recipe alterations. This recipe uses Pomona's Pectin which we like because it uses a lower amount of sugar.
