Description

This easy no-cook strawberry jam captures the bright, fresh flavor of summer berries without the need for boiling or canning. Using just ripe strawberries, sugar, lemon juice, and fruit pectin, this recipe creates a smooth, spreadable preserve that sets perfectly in the freezer. It is an excellent choice for quick breakfasts, yogurt toppings, or dessert accompaniments. The process is straightforward and requires minimal active time, making it ideal for using up a sudden surplus of fresh fruit. Store in the freezer for long-term enjoyment or in the refrigerator for immediate use within a few weeks. The result is a jam with a natural, fruity taste and a lovely texture that feels lighter than traditional cooked jams.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Crush fully ripe strawberries completely, one layer at a time, to release their juices.
  2. Measure 1 3/4 cups of the crushed strawberry juice or fruit into a large bowl or pan.
  3. Add the measured sugar to the fruit mixture and mix well until combined.
  4. In a small separate bowl, mix the lemon juice and Certo fruit pectin until smooth.
  5. Stir the lemon juice and pectin mixture into the fruit and sugar mixture.
  6. Continue stirring constantly for 3 minutes until the sugar begins to dissolve.
  7. Pour the mixture quickly into clean jars.
  8. Cover the jars immediately with tight-fitting lids.
  9. Allow the jam to set at room temperature for up to 24 hours.

Note

After setting at room temperature, store the jam in the freezer for long-term preservation.

If you plan to use the jam within 3 weeks, you may store it in the refrigerator instead of the freezer.

A few sugar crystals may remain undissolved after stirring; this is normal and does not affect the quality of the jam.

Ensure strawberries are fully ripe for the best flavor and natural pectin content.
