Comment préparer Vera's Strawberry Preserves

  1. Wash and hull 4 pounds of fresh strawberries.
  2. In a large, non-reactive saucepan, combine the strawberries, 4 cups of granulated sugar, 1 cup of water, and 1/4 cup of lemon juice.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
  4. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to cook, stirring frequently, for approximately 20 minutes, or until the strawberries soften and release their juices.
  5. Begin shaking the pan gently (Vera's secret!) while maintaining a low simmer. Continue to cook for another 10 minutes, shaking frequently to prevent sticking and to ensure even cooking.
  6. Increase heat to medium and boil rapidly for another 20 minutes, while vigorously shaking, to further concentrate the preserves.
  7. Remove from heat and skim off any foam that may have formed on the surface.
  8. Ladle the hot preserves into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace.
  9. Wipe the jar rims clean, place lids and bands on the jars, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust processing time according to your altitude).
  10. Remove jars from the canner and let cool completely. You should hear a 'pop' sound as the jars seal.
