"An extravagant jam made according to a family recipe that`s passed down from generation to generation."

Ingredients

  • strawberries - 6.5 lb (3 kg)
  • sugar - 2 lb (1 kg)
  • citric acid - 1 tsp
measures

How to make

Wash the strawberries and remove their stems. Put them in a deep pot and pour the sugar on top. Leave them to sit overnight, covered with a lid, in a cool area.

The next day, stir and put it on the stove. I put it to boil on the 5th setting (out of 6 max), then lowered the heat to 4 toward the end.

Stir periodically to prevent burning because it'll thicken. Once you see a pink foam start to form, remove it with a slotted spoon.

Boil the jam for 2 hours. Add the citric acid a little before the end, stir well and it'll be ready after 4-5 min.

Once it cools, the jam will thicken a bit more, so keep that in mind.

Pour it out into dry jars, close with caps and turn with the caps down until they cool - that way they seal.

Delicious and aromatic!
