How to Make Strawberry Lavender Jam
- Combine strawberries, lavender buds, and lemon juice in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan. Gently crush the strawberries slightly with a potato masher or the back of a spoon.
- Add the Dr. Oetker's super gelling sugar 3:1 to the saucepan and mix thoroughly, ensuring all the sugar is incorporated.
- Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Once boiling, maintain a rolling boil for exactly 3 minutes, stirring continuously to prevent sticking.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and skim off any foam that has formed on the surface.
- Ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving a small headspace (about 1/2 inch). Wipe the rims of the jars clean.
- Seal the jars tightly with lids and rings. Process the jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust processing time based on altitude).
- Remove the jars from the water bath and allow them to cool completely. You should hear a 'pop' as the jars seal. Check that the seals are secure.
- Store the jam in a cool, dark place for at least 2-3 weeks before enjoying to allow the flavors to fully develop.
