Strawberry Freezer Jam
2 cups crushed strawberries
2 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
4 cups of sugar
1 pouch of CERTO Sure-Jell Liquid Fruit Pectin
Crush fruit in a large bowl using a potato masher. Measure the exact amount of fruit. Add sugar, mix and then allow to sit for 10 minutes.
Combine Pectin and lemon juice in a bowl. Stir pectin mixture into fruit and sugar. Stir constantly for about 3 minutes or until sugar is dissolved.
Pour jam into containers, I used Ball Freezer Canning Containers. Freeze for up to a year. It will keep in the fridge for 3 weeks (but yours won't last that long - I'd give a container a couple days at the most).
The finished product! Great on vanilla ice cream and crepes as well. And now for something to put that jam on.
Best Ever Biscuits!
2 cups flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. cream of tartar
2 tsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup butter
2/3 cup milk
Add the milk and just barely combine the ingredients by tossing it gently with a fork. The less you handle the dough the more tender it will be.
I found your blog just by chance, and I love your recipes. Thank you for sharing.
