Plump, fragrant, sweet fresh strawberries call for their season to be extended throughout the year. The perfect answer-make a supply of your own delicous jam to spread on hot biscuits, ladle on crisp waffles or dot on home-baked cookies. Make several extra jars to keep on hand to share with friends-a lovning gift from your own kitchen. Deliciossso!!! Ingredients:
5 cups fresh strawberries |
5 cups granulated sugar |
1 orange, grated rind |
1/4 cup orange juice |
Directions:
1. Wash berries. Slice, combine with sugar in a 4-quart enameled or stainless-steel pot.
2. Let stand several hours or over-night, until natural juices form.
3. Bring jam to boiling. Stir very gently until sugar dissolves.
4. Keep at a moderate boil for 10 minute Add gratd orangerind andorange juice.
5. Return to heat and bring toboiling again. Test for a jelly-stage of 220 degrees on a candy thermometer (or when the liquid slides from spoon to form a large drop). This will be about 3 minute after jam returns to boling. Remove from heat and skim off foam.
