I am looking for a recipe for strawberry refrigerator jam. A friend gave me some and I love it! It is not too sweet and keeps for a long time in the refrigerator.
Combine strawberries & sugar, and let stand 20 min. Combine pectin & water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. Boil 1 min, stirring constantly. Pour pectin mixture over strawberry mixture, and stir 3 min. Immediately pour jam into jelly jars or frozen food containers, leaving 1/2 inch head space. Cover at once with lids. Cool to room temp. Refrigerate up to 3 weeks or freeze up to 1 year. Makes approx. 6 cups.
All freezer jam is better than the regular & easier to make--buy some low sugar pectin --it comes in a small box like jello--there are many different kinds, but all seem to have receipes for freezer jamthe most common is a brand Sure-Jell. The BEST pectin is "Mrs. Wages" I think it is made in Mississippi & sold mostly in the southern states, but some other states too. It's much better than the others.
