How to Make Fresh Strawberry Microwave Jam
- Mash 2 cups of fresh strawberries in a 3-quart glass microwave-safe dish.
- Stir in 1/4 cup liquid pectin.
- Microwave on high for 4-6 minutes, or until the mixture comes to a rolling boil. Stir halfway through.
- Stir in 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons lemon juice.
- Microwave on high for 7-9 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes, until the mixture reaches a full rolling boil that lasts for 1 minute.
- Remove from microwave and carefully ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
- Adjust jar lids and rings securely.
- Let the jam cool completely. You should hear a 'pop' sound as the jars seal. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks or freeze for longer storage.
