not always the same jam anymore!

 

During my time away from working

waiting to walk again 

I had more spare time for me

among other things, I tried to do new experiments in cooking

at least new to me.

Strawberry time is almost gone in Sicily

why not to try to make strawberry jam?

My mother had ALWAYS made ONLY Queens apple jam for years!

I  used rigorously organic strawberries

brown sugar

and lemons from my beloved lemon tree!

 

it was quite simple!

you need :

500gr of strawberries

400 gr of brown sugar

the juice of one lemon

the grated peel of the  lemon 

cook together the all ingredients

till they reach the right consistency

 

then pour the hot jam into hot glass jars

previously heated in the hoven to sterilize them

then keep  the jars upside down for a while

and then if you want to preserve your jam for a longer time

keep the jars  in boiling water for about 30 minutes
