STRAWBERRY JAM WITH LIQUID PECTIN RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Wash strawberries; drain.

• Crush strawberries on layer at a time. (I use a potato masher for this.).

• Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
• Add sugar, stirring until dissolved. Return to a rolling boil.
• Boil hard 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Remove from heat, and skim foam if necessary.
• Ladle into hot, sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch head space.
• Adjust 2-piece caps. Process 10 minutes in a boiling water canner.

Steps:

• You will also need 6 (12 ounces) jelly or jam jars, boiled or washed in HOT soapy water, then rinsed in HOT water Smash the raspberries and strawberries and place them in a large sauce pot with the water.
• Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat then add the sugars.
• Turn heat to high and bring to a rolling boil, stirring often.
• Quickly stir in the pectin and let boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Remove from the heat and ladle into the jars to about 1/2-inch from the top.
• Place the lids on tight and turn the jars upside-down for 15 minutes then turn them right side up.
• The jam will last for about 6 months in a cool, dark pantry and about 1 year in the refrigerator.
