Strawberry Jam

As strawberries have very small seeds, this fruit makes an excellent jam.

Ingredients

  • 4 quarts strawberries
  • 2 pounds sugar

Instructions

Wash and hull the strawberries. Then mash them in a preserving kettle and add the sugar to them. Place over the fire, and boil slowly until the mixture becomes thick, stirring frequently to prevent the jam from sticking to the kettle and scorching. When the jam is cooked to the proper consistency, the juice should test as for jelly. Pour the mixture into hot sterilized glasses, cool, and then seal and label.
