Ingredients

  • 1 kg Fresh strawberries (hulled & halved)
  • 800 g (adjust for sweetness) Granulated sugar
  • 2 lemons (about 80 ml) Lemon juice
  • 1 packet or 50 g Pectin (optional for quicker set)

Method

  1. Wash strawberries → hull & halve large ones → place in large pot → mash lightly to release juices.
  2. Add sugar + lemon juice → stir → let sit 1–2 hours (or overnight in fridge) until sugar dissolves and juices flow.
  3. Bring mixture to boil over medium-high → skim foam → reduce to rolling boil.
  4. Boil 15–25 min, stirring occasionally → test set (wrinkle test on chilled plate or 105°C thermometer) → add pectin if using & boil 5 more min.
  5. Remove from heat → let rest 5–10 min → ladle into sterilized jars → seal while hot → cool upside down for vacuum seal.
  6. Store in cool dark place up to 1 year (refrigerate after opening). Makes 3–4 jars — vibrant, chunky strawberry jam.
