Ingredients
- 1kg strawberries (rinsed and hulled)
- 2 x 500g packet CSR Jam Setting Sugar
- 10g butter
Method
- Crush strawberries coarsely with a potato masher or blender.
- Place strawberries and sugar in a large, heavy based 6 litre pot.
- Heat mixture over a low heat until sugar is dissolved. Do not allow to boil.
- Add butter then increase heat and bring to a rapid boil. Boil for 4 mins then remove from heat, skim off any foam with a tablespoon. Test a small amount of jam on a cold plate, (the surface should wrinkle when a spoon is pushed through it).
- Ladle hot jam into warm sterilised jars and seal with a lid. Set aside to cool, then label, date and store in a cool dark place. Refrigerate after opening.
