Ingredients:
- 4 cups strawberries, chopped
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 3 1/2 cups sugar
Instructions:
- Place the chopped strawberries into a large pot and mash them with the back of a spoon or potato masher. Pour in the lemon juice, and the sugar. Place pot on the stove over medium high heat until mixture comes to a boil. Once a boil has been reached, reduce heat to medium low and allow to cook for around 20-23 minutes. The liquid should turn a deeper colour. *warning, keep an eye on the pot while it boils as is can over boil and make a mess*
- After the cooking is done, pour the jar into the 4 jars leaving about a 1/2 inch of space at the top of the jar. Place on jar in the fridge and the other three in the freezer. The jam will remain loose for the first 24-48 hours but will stiffen up. The jam in fridge will last 3 weeks and the jam in the freezer is good for 6 months. Enjoy!
