Frozen Strawberry Jam
- 100 grams Frozen strawberries
- 50 grams Granulated sugar (or any kind of sugar)
- 1/2 tsp Lemon juice
- 1 dash Honey (optional)
- I made this jam using these frozen strawberries.
- Put the strawberries and sugar in a pan, and simmer over medium heat.
- If you have time, pour the sugar over the strawberries and leave for 30 minutes before cooking.
- In the meantime, sterilize the jars.
- Put plenty of water in a pot with the jars, and boil for about 5 minutes.
- Leave to dry on a clean kitchen towel.
- When the jam comes to a boil, lower the heat to medium-low, and simmer slowly while stirring.
- If it looks like it is going to burn, turn the heat down to low.
- Skim off any scum that rises.
- If you have a bowl of water nearby, this task goes smoothly.
- When the jam starts to bubble and you can scrape the bottom of the pan, add lemon juice and turn off the heat.
- Put the hot jam into the dried sterilized jars, and leave to cool upside down.
- The recipe filled this jar 2/3 full.
- It's also delicious with a little honey added as a hidden flavor.
- If you do use honey, add it at the very end.
- Use on plain yogurt It's sweet, tart and delicious.
- My daughter has seconds.
- Tip: Strawberries help to eliminate a buildup of sodium in your system.
- It also contains potassium, which helps to lower blood pressure, and xylitol, which prevents tooth decay.
- Tip: When making jam, use an enamel or stainless steel pan.
- If you use an aluminum or cast iron pot, the metal will dissolve and react with the acid in the fruit juice and make it discolor.
