No-Cook Strawberry Jam

Mon, 15 Jul 2002 07:07:55 -0400

Recipe is from Karo Sweet and simple recipe Cookbook 1992. Notes on No Cook Jams: Since no cook jams require no heat processing, they are more brightly colored, fruitier and fresher tasting than cooked fruit jams. Use firm, fully ripe, unblemished fruit. Chop quickly in small quantities using a blender, food processor or grinder. (to prevent some fruits like peaches, pears, and apricots from darkening, add lemon juice.) Corn syrup enhances fresh fruit flavor and blend easily. Freezer jams can be made with any fruit except fresh pineapple. Blueberries are best used as a secondary fruit in a combination. -- posted by 1Steve

Strawberry Lemon-Lime Marmalade

Sun, 20 Jul 2003 20:05:46 -0400

I was going to make Strawberry Lemon Marmalade by Kristal Stygler (recipe #12057) but when I took a closer look I thought it called for more sugar than I would like and be more like jam than marmalade. I came up with this instead and I think it is really delicious. It is definitely a marmalade, but not as strong as some. Sets beautifully, too, from the natural pectin in the citrus fruit and seed. I have also made this with sour cherries instead of the strawberries - also delicious! -- posted by Jenny Sanders

Sugar Free Strawberry Jam

Sat, 27 Mar 2004 20:00:55 -0500

After spending too much money on store bought sugar free jams, I was given this recipe by a friend. It tastes better than most you find in the store, and is much cheaper. I use granular splenda, and don't measure it, I just add until it tastes sweet enough. -- posted by 89240

Strawberry-gooseberry Jam

Sun, 25 Apr 2004 20:00:33 -0400

I have never managed to get plain strawberry jam to set, partially because I absolutely refuse to add sufficient sugar. Adding gooseberries (or currants) ensures a good set, and adds a very nice tangy flavour too. -- posted by Jenny Sanders

This is from a booklet that the IGA supermarket produced. It looks really good, and there's no jars required.

Strawberry-Lavender Jam

Mon, 23 Jul 2007 23:09:12 -0400

Strawberries and lavender are a wonderful combination. Not only that the jam is tasting great, it has also a great flavor, which fills the air, when you open the glass. Can there be something better than breakfast with such a jam? In this method I use Dr. Oetker's "Gelling Sugar", which already contains pectin. The "Super Gelling Sugar 3:1" reduces the amount of needed sugar to 1/3 of the fruit weight. This makes the jam not so sweet and very fruity and fresh. This jam is best when made with fresh lavender inflorescences while still flowering. I have enough lavender in the garden. -- posted by Thorsten

Strawberry-Basil Jam

Tue, 31 Jul 2007 13:03:05 -0400

Strawberry and Basil are a wonderful combination. The sweetness of the strawberries goes well together with the herbal flavors of basil. The lime adds the freshness, which I like about this jam. I'm using here the "Super Gelling Sugar" from Dr. Oetker (German brand), which makes it possible to reduce the sugar amount to 1/3 of fruit weigth. -- posted by Thorsten

Vera's Strawberry Preserves

Sun, 19 Aug 2007 18:47:27 -0400

I love Vera's directions for this recipe. Get ready for a work out! Vera wrote in the margins "The shaking is the secret of success! It causes the berries to absorb the syrup and remain plump and whole. Never cook more than 2 quarts at a time and be sure to SHAKE THE BERRIES!" I know this makes 2 quarts, but am guessing at the servings. Cooking time does not include cooling time. -- posted by AshK

Diabetic Strawberry Jam - Sugar Free

Mon, 29 Oct 2007 18:31:42 -0400

Got this recipe from a site on the net. I needed a sugar free strawberry jam. Seeing no-sugared jam spoils easily, so I tried this recipe and it is perfect. The jam is stored in the freezer, so you may use any airtight, leak proof freezer container for storage. Tastes better if allowed to sit for a week. freezes beautifully for up to 6 months. -- posted by Tisme

I've been making it for years; I think I got it from Taste of Home magazine, but I can't remember now for sure. Prep time includes estimated time to cook jam and ladle into jars, cook time is time to sit and seal. -- posted by Halcyon Eve

Traditional Devon Cream Tea Strawberry Jam - Strawberry Conserve

Fri, 18 Apr 2008 02:25:31 -0400

A fabulous recipe for a soft set strawberry jam, or rather a strawberry conserve, where most of the fruit remains whole and is suspended in a delicious strawberry flavoured jammy syrup! This conserve reminds me of the traditional Cream Teas you get in the West country of England - especially Devon and Cornwall; a pot of tea served with fluffy fresh scones, butter, thick cream and this strawberry conserve. (Preparation time includes the 2 days allowed for the fruit to stand in the sugar.) This type of jam recipe is also very French, they tend to have a softer set jam here in France - it is lovely to see WHOLE pieces of fruit on your toast or scones! I also use this for steamed puddings - absolutely divine! -- posted by French Tart

A simple easy preserve recipe that may be successfuly frozen, I freeze large quantities in plastic containers when berry season come around, it makes a lovely spread for toast, scones or waffles --- this also works well using fresh blueberries or raspberries :) --- 2 cups of sugar will give you a very sweet taste if you prefer a preserve that is not too sweet then use 1-1/2 cups sugar or even a little less. -- posted by KITTENCAL

Strawberry Pineapple Uncooked Freezer Jam

Sun, 11 Jan 2009 13:01:05 -0500

This is one of the first jams I made in high school home economics. We got to pick out what kind of fruit, and I chose strawberry pineapple (still one of my favorite combinations today). I was so excited when I made this because it turned out so nicely even though it was my first time. Who needs store bought jam when you can whip up something tastier in no time. Preparation time excludes resting time. -- posted by AmyZoe

This is a really good jam to make when you can't buy berries in season. I came up with this recipe when somebody (DH) left the door ajar on our upright freezer and the 2 kg bag of berries thawed out.

Strawberry Lemon Marmalade

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 17:28:45 -0500

I just made this recipe, and it is soooo good! Beautiful, jewel-toned strawberry jam with a touch of lemon--I found the recipe in the Ball powdered pectin box. My chef husband gave me a bar zester years ago, and I use it to get a fine, delicate lemon peel with no pith. If you don't have a zester, prepare the peel to your preference, but be sure to remove as much of the pith as possible. This jam set up quickly for me, and I would recommend turning the jars after they seal to distribute the fruit pieces. I can't wait to give this as gifts for the holidays! -- posted by Deb Redfield
