What you need to Make Strawberry Jam:

Only 5 simple ingredients to make the most amazing strawberry jam ever. The sugar brings out the natural flavor of the fresh strawberries and the pectin will bind with the sugar to make a gel. The diced strawberries and sweet gel are indescribably good together and you will be loading this jam on everything you make!

Ripe strawberries: Wash, remove stems, then crush. Sugar: Adds sweetness and pulls out juice from strawberries. Fruit pectin: I use Sure Jell; I don’t even think I’ve seen a different brand. Water: To thin out the jam a bit. Freezer-safe containers: 8 oz containers are the perfect size.

Pro tip: Don’t over mash strawberries because you want to keep the jam nice and chunky. How to use homemade jam: Spread on toast, ice cream, milkshakes, as a fresh filling in thumbprint cookies, or in a crumb cake. Variations: Swap out strawberries for blueberries, raspberries or peaches for other great jam flavors. Shortcut: Use frozen fruit as a substitute for fresh fruit in this recipe. Just thaw to room temperature then follow recipe directions. Storage: This jam will last in the freezer for up to a year. Once thawed it will last no more than one month in the refrigerator. That is, if you don’t devour it all before then!
