Ingredients
- 1 pound whole ripe red strawberries (do not use any white discolored berries)
- 2/3 cup white sugar (can use more)
- 2 tablespoons powdered fruit pectin
- 2 to 3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
How to Make
-
Step 1: In a bowl mash the berries using clean hands or a potato masher (a fork will work well also). In a medium saucepan stir the mashed berries with sugar, pectin and lemon juice (start with 2/3 cup of sugar and add in more to taste if needed) bring to a boil over medium heat and stir until thickened (about 5-6 minutes). Transfer to a bowl and cool to room temperature.

Step 2: Store tightly covered in clean glass jars.
