Homemade strawberry jam with two ingredients. The flavor of real jam made with just-picked fruit is something else entirely.
Make this when strawberries are at peak. Overripe fruit makes better jam than underripe.
What you'll need
How it comes together
Combine strawberries, sugar and lemon juice in a large heavy pan. Let sit 30 minutes for the sugar to draw out juices.
Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Skim off any foam.
Boil hard for 10-15 minutes until setting point is reached. Test by placing a teaspoon on a cold plate: it should wrinkle when pushed.
Pour into sterilized jars and seal immediately. Process in a water bath for 10 minutes for longer shelf life.

If you grow it and cook it, we want to hear about it. We'll credit you by name when it goes live, and if you're honoring someone, tell us the story.

We'll give it a proper look and reach out before anything goes live. If you sent photos, we'll follow up separately. Thanks for being part of this.
