Chop and crush the strawberries with a chopping tool or by pulsing them in a food processor until they are broken down into ¼- to ½-inch pieces. Avoid smashing the strawberries to the point where they are puréed. Have the sugar measured out into a separate bowl so it's ready when it's time to add to the mixture. - Cook the strawberries. In a heavy-bottom kettle, add the strawberries, Sure-Jell, and butter. Heat the mixture while stirring to combine. Allow the mixture to come to a rolling boil, which is a boil that does not cease when stirring. - When the strawberry mixture is at a rolling boil, add in the sugar. Allow the mixture to come back up to a rolling boil and let it boil for exactly 1 minute. - Ladle the strawberry jam into sterilized jars. Clean off the rim of each jar to ensure none of the jam will interfere with the jar's sealing. Place a prepared lid and ring on each jar. Tighten to finger-tip tightness. - Water bath the jars. Lower the jars into a prepared water bath canner fitted with a rack. Bring to a boil and boil for 10 minutes. Then, remove the jars from the canner and set them on a cooling rack. The jars should seal quickly. Allow to cool for 12 hours before checking the seals. NOTE: This recipe uses Sure-Jell for recipes with less sugar. This means that the Sure-Jell has been formulated specifically for use with recipes that require less sugar. If you want to use the original Sure-Jell, use 7 cups of white granulated sugar rather than the 4 cups listed in the ingredients.

My knowledge has been earned from years of home cooks and farmers in my family. https://wyseguide.com A farm is much more than a house to live in; it’s a lifestyle. My passion for gardening and landscaping came from outdoor work with my mom in our expansive farm yard, my love for baking came from innumerable short walks to my grandma’s house to make cookies, and as a farmer, my dad taught me that we are the stewards of our land. So whether you live in a city center or have decided rural life is for you, I hope to inspire you with the projects and recipes I use in daily life. We can’t all live on a farm, but we all need farms in our lives. From the dirt in my vegetable garden to the flour in my kitchen, I’ll show you everything I love to do.
