Do you know how hard it is to find a recipe for strawberry jam (or any jam, really) that doesn't include pectin? Or doesn't include huge amounts of berries? Ridiculously hard. However, I managed to find both!
16oz strawberries, hulled and coarsely chopped
3/4 cup sugar
2 tbsp lemon juice
In a saucepan, mix berries, sugar and lemon juice.
Stir over med-low heat until sugar is dissolved.
Increase heat to med-high and bring mixture to a rolling boil.
Stir frequently, mashing the strawberries as you stir, continuing to boil, until jam is thickened and bubbles completely cover the surface of the jam (about 10 minutes).
Transfer jam to whatever container you're putting it in (I used a large Tupperware snack cup because I sell TW and have it everywhere) and let cool to room temperature.
Store in refrigerator for about 10 days (or freeze).
That's it! Seriously! So easy. I'd never made jam before, but this might be a yearly thing!
I got the recipe from http://scatteredthoughtsofacraftymom.com/quick-homemade-strawberry-jam/
