How to Make Strawberry Rhapsody Jam
- Preheat your mason jars and lids in a simmering water bath for 10 minutes. This ensures a proper seal.
- In a large, deep stainless steel saucepan, combine 4 cups hulled and sliced strawberries, 2 cups raspberries, and 1 pouch (1.75 oz) of fruit pectin.
- Whisk the fruit pectin thoroughly into the fruit mixture to prevent clumping.
- If using a sweetener, measure out 4 cups of granulated sugar (or equivalent amount of Splenda) and set aside.
- Stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or heat-resistant spatula, bring the fruit mixture to a rolling boil over high heat. This is crucial for proper setting.
- If using, add the sweetener to the boiling fruit mixture. Stir continuously to prevent burning.
- Once the mixture returns to a full rolling boil, continue to boil hard for exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat immediately.
- Skim off any foam that has formed on the surface of the jam.
- Carefully ladle the hot jam into the preheated jars, leaving ¼ inch headspace. Wipe the rims clean, apply lids and rings, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes to seal.
