Strawberry Freezer Jam

Yield: (5) One cup containers

Ingredients

2 cups crushed strawberries
4 cups sugar
1 box SURE•JELL® Fruit Pectin
3/4 cup water

1) Crush strawberries to yield 2 cups strawberry mash. (I like to use a food processor and just make sure they still have chunks left...much less time consuming than hand crushing)

2) In large bowl, thoroughly mix mashed strawberries with 4 cups sugar. Let stand 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

3) In a small sauce pan, mix 1 box SURE•JELL® Fruit Pectin with 3/4 cup water. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Continue boiling and stirring for 1 minute.

4) Stir pectin mixture into strawberry mixture. Continue stirring for 3 minutes.

5) Fill plastic containers to within 1/2" of the top and then cover with lid.

6) Let stand at room temperature for 24 hours. Jam is now ready to use.

Store extras in the freezer and thaw in the refrigerator.
