STRAWBERRY JAM


You may add 1/4 cup of lemon juice to this jam, right at the end,
to give it a tart edge that sets off the flavor of the strawberries.

3 pounds strawberries, stemmed, and quartered if large
3 pounds sugar

Place the strawberries and the sugar in a large, stainless steel kettle.
Bring to a boil over medium heat. Shake the pan to blend the ingredients,
reduce the heat so the mixture simmers merrily, and continue cooking until the
jam jells medium-firm, shaking the pan occasionally, about 40 minutes.
Remove from the heat and sterilize according to jar manufacturer's instructions.

Makes about 5 cups (1.25 liters).
