Zubereitung von Really Easy Strawberry Jam
- Combine 500g sliced strawberries and 500g granulated sugar in a medium, heavy-based saucepan.
- Gently stir to coat the strawberries in sugar. Allow to stand for 10 minutes to macerate.
- Add the juice of 1 lemon (approximately 2 tablespoons).
- Stir gently over low-medium heat until all the sugar dissolves and the mixture starts to bubble.
- Increase the heat slightly and bring to a rolling boil. Reduce the heat to low-medium and simmer for 25-35 minutes, or until the jam reaches setting point (a small amount placed on a chilled plate wrinkles when pushed with a finger).
- Remove the jam from the heat and allow the bubbles to subside.
- Skim off any foam that rises to the surface.
- Carefully ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving a small headspace.
- Wipe the jar rims clean, then seal immediately with lids.
- Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (optional, but recommended for longer shelf life).
- Allow the jars to cool completely. You should hear a 'pop' as the jars seal. Store in a cool, dark place. Refrigerate after opening.
