How to Make 3 Step Strawberry Jam
- In a large bowl, gently mash 4 cups of fresh strawberries with 3 cups of granulated sugar.
- Let the mixture stand for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to help the strawberries release their juices and the sugar dissolve.
- In a small saucepan, whisk together 1 box (1.75 oz) of Sure-Jell fruit pectin and 1/2 cup of water until smooth.
- Bring the Sure-Jell mixture to a rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly for 1 minute.
- Stir the boiling Sure-Jell mixture into the strawberry mixture.
- Continue stirring constantly for 3 minutes, or until the mixture thickens. A few sugar crystals may remain.
- Fill sterilized half-pint jars to within 1/2 inch of the top.
- Cover jars with lids and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (or follow manufacturer's instructions for your jars).
- Remove jars from the water bath and let them cool completely.
- Check the seals to ensure they are properly sealed. Store in a cool, dark place.
