Ingredients
  

  • 4 c fresh strawberries
  • 4 c sugar
  • 1 box Sure-Jell
  • ¾ c water

Instructions
 

  • Remove and discard strawberry stems. Crush strawberries. 4 cups of fresh strawberries should yield roughly 2 cups of crushed strawberries. Use ONLY 2 cups of freshly-crushed strawberries in the recipe.
  • Add 4 cups of sugar to the crushed strawberries. Do not reduce the amount of sugar/use sugar substitutes; it will result in setting failures.
  • Stir 1 package of Sure-Jell Premium Fruit Pectin and ¾ cup of water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil on high heat, stirring constantly. Boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
  • Add pectin mixture to fruit + sugar mixture. Stir for 3 minutes or until sugar has completely dissolved.
  • Pour freezer jam mixture into mason jars, leaving ½ inch spaces at the top for expansion during freezing. Cover tightly with a lid.
  • Allow the freezer jam to stand at room temperature for 24 hours (or until fully set). Refrigerate for immediate use; freeze for future use.
