STRAWBERRY AND VANILLA JAM
Strawberry and vanilla jam is ridiculousy easy to make. Make up a batch or two when strawberries are cheap and plentiful, and you'll never buy store bought jam again.

Steps:
- hull and halve, or if you have large strawberries quarter them
- mix strawberries with the sugar and allow to sit for 1-24 hours
- place sugar and strawberries in a heavy based pot along with the lemon juice and vanilla seeds
- place 2 small plates in the freezer - this is for testing the jams readiness later on
- slowly bring the strawberries and sugar mix to a gentle simmer allowing the sugar to dissolve
- preheat oven to 130c (275f)
- have ready some water and a pastry brush to wash down the sides of the pan of any sugar - this is an important step to stop the sugar crystalizing
- wash down the sides of the pot with the brush dipped in water to remove any sugar stuck to the sides of the pan and simmer gently for approximately 25-30 minutes
- while the jam is simmering place the washed jars and lids on a tray and pop in the oven for 10-15 mins - (note - if using lids with rubber lining boil them instead of placing them in the oven) see above for how to prepare jars
- remove a plate from the freezer and place a teaspoon of the jam onto the cold plate and pop in the fridge for a couple of minutes
- remove plate from fridge and gently push your finger through the jam
- if the jam forms a distinct skin and wrinkles the jam is ready
- if you don't get the wrinkle effect continue cooking the jam for a few more minutes and test again until you get the wrinkle effect
- when your jam is ready, use a spoon and skim the surface of the jam to remove the foam
- allow the jam to cool for 15-20 minutes so the jam thickens (this helps to prevent all of the strawberries from rising to the top)
- pour jam into the very hot jars leaving only a small gap and seal with the lid immediately (this helps to create a vacuum)
- allow jam to cool completely on the bench
- wipe jars with a damp cloth to remove any small spills of sticky jam
- store in a cool, dark place
- enjoy!

STRAWBERRY JAM
This is by far the easiest recipe I have found for strawberry jam without using a pectin. The jam is soft, spreadable and delicious.

Steps:
- In a wide bowl, crush strawberries in batches until you have 4 cups of mashed berry. In a heavy bottomed saucepan, mix together the strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Stir over low heat until the sugar is dissolved. Increase heat to high, and bring the mixture to a full rolling boil. Boil, stirring often, until the mixture reaches 220 degrees F (105 degrees C). Transfer to hot sterile jars, leaving 1/4 to 1/2 inch headspace, and seal. Process in a water bath. If the jam is going to be eaten right away, don't bother with processing, and just refrigerate.

STRAWBERRY VANILLA JAM
This recipe is an adaptation/mash-up of the strawberry jam recipe in the book titled Well Preserved by Mary Anne Dragan and the strawberry vanilla jam recipe in the book titled Put 'Em Up! by Sherri Brooks Vinton that also includes my own additions! The butter is optional and will help tame the foaming but don't use more than 1/2 teaspoon as this may raise the pH too high making your finished product unsafe to can. The lemon juice should be bottled instead of fresh because bottled has a more reliable and consistent pH where as fresh can vary. This makes wonderful gifts that are a bit more special than just regular strawberry jam! I usually get 6 half pint jars and a quarter pint jar out of this recipe.

Steps:
- Place the strawberries in a large stockpot and crush them slightly with a potato masher to break them up a little and release some of their juice. Simmer the strawberries over medium low heat for 10 minutes.
- Add the lemon juice, vanilla extract, seeds scraped from the vanilla beans, (you may also add the vanilla bean pods if desired after you have scraped the seeds from them - just remember to take them out before you start filling your jars!) butter and sugar and stir well until sugar is dissolved.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium high heat and boil hard for 20 minutes, stirring frequently (be careful, this has a tendency to spit at you and boiling sugar burns are unpleasant!), until it has reduced and thickened a bit. You may test for gel at this point if deisred.
- Remove from heat and stir constantly for 3 minutes to redistribute the fruit evenly through the jam and prevent it from floating to the top of your finished product.
- Ladle jam into hot half pint (8 oz.) jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Process jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes - adjusting for altitude.

STRAWBERRY VANILLA JAM
I wanted something more then just strawberry jam, I saw this recipe online for jelly. So I added the vanilla to the jam I was making. This is good for toast/muffins and over ice cream. Time does not count overnight time. Cooking time counts canning time.

Steps:
- Put all fresh cut strawberries and vanilla been in a plastic gallon bag with 1 cup sugar and set overnight in the fridge.
- The next day, there should now be some juices in the bag along with the strawberries. Put the sugar/strawberries/juice in pan, take out vanilla bean. Cut bean in half down the center. Scrape out seeds and put into pan with strawberries. Discard bean pod. Stir in remaining sugar, lemon zest and add butter.
- Bring to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly.
- Take off heat. Stir in pectin. Return to full rolling boil and boil for exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon.
- Take potato masher and mash strawberries to the size you want in jam. Let this cool for 5/10 minutes, so that all the fruit will not rise to the top in jars.
- Ladle immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of tops. Wipe rim clean.
- Apply lids, then rings and tighten rings to fingertip tightness.
- Process in boiling water bath for your altitude time.
- P.S. Tips: A. If using fresh strawberries, they can be crushed before cooking/boiling. But I like chunky jam and I have found that the strawberries melt during the boiling time if I mash them first. So I prefer to do this after boiling. This way I have more control of the final fruit size B. In summer we freeze lots of strawberries for me to make jam in fall for xmas baskets. Once they are unfrozen there is juice already, so I skip the overnight process. C: Just an FYI, If you use store bought bagged frozen strawberries, since they are cut more then half and are not fresh they break down even faster during the boiling time. D. You can also make this with low sugar pectin or no sugar recipes, just follow the fruit/sugar qty's on the pectin boxes instructions.

Steps:
- Prepare the strawberries by wiping them with a piece of damp kitchen paper. (Wiping the strawberries rather than washing them ensures the fruit doesn't absorb lots of water - too much water and the jam won't set easily.) To hull the fruit, use a knife to cut a cone shape into the strawberry and remove the stem. Cut any large berries in half.
- Put the strawberries in a bowl and gently toss through the sugar. Leave uncovered at room temperature for 12 hrs or overnight. This process helps the sugar to dissolve, ensures the fruit doesn't disintegrate too much and helps to keep its vibrant colour.
- Before starting the jam, put 2 saucers in the freezer. Tip the strawberry mixture into a preserving pan with the lemon juice. Set over a low heat and cook very gently. If any sugar remains on the sides of the pan, dip a pastry brush in hot water and brush the sugar away.
- When you can no longer feel any grains of sugar remaining, turn up the heat to start bubbling the jam and bringing it to the boil. (The sugar must be completely dissolved before increasing the heat, otherwise it will be difficult for the jam to set, and it may contain crystallised lumps of sugar.)
- Boil hard for 5-10 mins until the jam has reached 105C on a preserving or digital thermometer, then turn off the heat. If you don't have a thermometer, spoon a little jam onto one of the cold saucers. Leave for 30 secs, then push with your finger; if the jam wrinkles and doesn't flood to fill the gap, it is ready. If not, turn the heat back on and boil for 2 mins more, then turn off the heat and do the wrinkle test again. Repeat until ready.
- Use a spoon to skim any scum that has risen to the surface and discard this. Do this only once at the end, rather than constantly during the boiling stage, to reduce wastage.
- Add a knob of butter, if you like, to the finished jam, and stir in to melt. This will help to dissolve any remaining scum that you haven't managed to spoon off the top. Leave the jam to settle for 15 mins - this will ensure that the fruit stays suspended in the mixture and doesn't all float to the top of the jam jar. Meanwhile, sterilise your jars.
- Ladle into warm jars, filling to just below the rim. Place a wax disc on top of the jam (this prevents mildew forming), then cover with a lid or a cellophane circle and elastic band. Pop on a label (include the date), plus a pretty fabric top, if you like. The jam can be stored for up to 1 year in a cool, dry place. Refrigerate after opening.
