Wild strawberry jam

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 12 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make wild strawberry jam for the winter? Prepare the products according to the list.

2. STEP 2

   

   First sort out the wild strawberries, removing all the twigs, sticks and leaves. And then rinse thoroughly, but very carefully, in water. This is a very tender and delicate berry, easily wrinkled. If there has been a lot of rain and there is soil on the berries, then it is best to first soak wild strawberries in a large amount of water, and then carefully rinse and rinse. Place clean berries in a saucepan or saucepan.

3. STEP 3

   

   Pour sugar over clean wild strawberries, shake the pan a little so that the sugar penetrates between the berries and leave for 2-3 hours at room temperature to release the berry juice.

4. STEP 4

   

   We will cook the jam in two approaches. Place the saucepan with the berries and sugar over medium heat, stirring gently occasionally. You can add citric acid at the tip of a knife. This way the jam will be stored better and its color will be brighter. After boiling, remove the foam and leave the jam at room temperature for a few more hours until it cools completely.

5. STEP 5

   

   Then heat the jam again until it boils, stirring. Prepare jars for canning: pour boiling water over them or sterilize them in the oven, microwave, or in a container of boiling water. Fill the prepared jars with hot jam. Seal tightly with sterile caps and invert. Wrap it in something warm and leave it there until it cools completely. Store the finished jam in a dark, dry place.
