Strawberry Jam (Slow Version)

Strawberry Jam (Slow Version)

While this jam takes more time then the quick version the cooking time is a lot less! So is it quick or slow?

Prepare your jars and lids (see Jam Basics for info on setting point).


Quantities

1.5 kilos Fresh Strawberries
tablespoon lemon juice
1 Kilos White Caster Sugar

Wash the strawberries then remove stalk and cut into small pieces. Add sugar and lemon juice. Set aside for 4-8 hours stirring occasionally.
Bring to the boil and gently stir until setting point has been reached (see Jam Basics for info on setting point).

Pour hot jam into hot jars and seal. Turn jar upside down for 5 minutes then turn right side up and allow to cool before labeling.
