STRAWBERRY JAM RECIPE

3 1/4 cups strawberries (blended which is easier or smashed)
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 box of pectin(stir while adding)
Add these ingredients to a bowl and let set for 30 min.
Stir every 10 min or so to dissolve pectin. After 30 min pour in pan and add:
1 cup of Karo or corn syrup(helps prevent crystallization during freezing)
4 1/2 cups of sugar(stir in gradually)
Stir all ingredients until heated to baby bottle temp (a little warmer than luke warm). After heated, pour into the container or jar of choice.
Makes approx. 2 3/4 quarts of Jam
I like to double recipe(It goes faster)
Enjoy!

Thanks Sister Barzee (and thanks to your grandmother too!)
