Recipe for Strawberry Jam without pectin:
5 cups mashed strawberries (about 3 to 4 lbs)
1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice (about 3 )
3 cups granulated sugar for low sugar recipe or, 6 cups full sugar recipe
the rinds of the juiced lemons
Place a small glass plate or saucer in the freezer.
mash the strawberries, stir in the lemon juice, reserve rinds.
Add in the desired sugar, 3-6 cups
Add in the lemon rinds to the mixture and set on stove in large pot, preferably with a heavy bottom, jam pan or dutch oven. Bring to a boil and cook on high stirring to keep from sticking until it reaches 220 degrees, use a thermometer or until a hard boil that you cannot stir down. boil 1 minute or so, then lower heat slightly and cook for 15 to 20 mins at a medium boil. After 15 to 20 minutes, do a gel check by removing small plate from freezer, put a teaspoon of jam on plate and return to freezer for about 2 minutes. Remove plate from freezer and draw your finger through the jam in the center and look for a path that does not fill back in. If it doesn't fill in it's ready to fill 1/2 pint, or jelly jars. If it is not ready, return to heat and cook another 3 to 4 mins and test again. Fill hot jars to 1/4 inch headspace. place on 2 piece lid and bands, fingertip tight. process in steam canner or water bath canner for 10 minutes. recipe can be doubled.

Iām growing my own garden for the second yr in a row, and want to get into canning so Iāve subscribed. I have zero equipment yet and have nvr canned a thing so Iām a complete newbie at this. I have some strawberries that r setting fruit right now, and I really want to make my own jelly. Iām also growing corn, peppers, cucumbers, zucchini, cantaloupe, watermelon, tomatoes, potatoes, green beans, blueberries, and onions. I always make my own spaghetti sauce from scratch and would love to can it rather than freeze it for a longer shelf life. Looking fwd to learning!

Thankyou so much for this video. I just ordered a steam canner and I am so happy to have seen this video. I have always used a water bath canner. I was a little nervous about using the steam canner but now I can't wait for it to be delivered.

Great video! I am trying canning for the first time this year! Watching your video makes me feel like I can do it! Can we do this with frozen fruit?

Little tip for mashing lots of strawberries, use a stock pot. It has a flat bottom surface, making it easier to mash and no strawberries jumping out of bowl.šš

In 40 years ....never covered jars with wtr..... š®ā¤

Coulld this be done with cherries? I've never made jam, preserves, or pie filling bc we eat keto but i want some in storage. I use my pressure canner to steam can. I've also never done water bath. I started canning last fall. I really want to use the least sugar, or sugar substitute for lowest carbs but still have flavor. If shtf happens, some good preserves will be priceless.
