Homestead Series How to Make Strawberry Jam

We are starting our summer canning with strawberry jam. Normally I use low/no sugar pectin and only add a cup or two of sugar in my recipe. However I’m out of that so I’m using up some regular pectin. This uses more sugar then I like, but considering how small of a serving you use it’s not to bad. Basic Strawberry Jam Recipe 2 quarts strawberries 2 TBS lemon juice 7 cups sugar 1 packet powdered pectin Mash berries and add lemon juice and pectin. Bring to a boil and add sugar. Boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat, stir and skim for 5 min. Ladle into jars and can for 10 min.
