Or maybe it was the middle of winter and the weather channel was forecasting 20 centimetres of snow. I have come up with the solution to your dilemma—home-made strawberry jam using frozen strawberries. It was several years ago when I was on vacation and missed strawberry season that I came up with this “recipe.” Since my husband and I really wanted fresh home-made strawberry jam, I thought about trying store-bought frozen strawberries. I make my jam the old-fashioned way—the way my grandmother made it and the way my mother made it. The only ingredients are fruit, sugar and a splash of lemon juice. I’m not sure why the lemon juice is important, but my grandmother and my mother added lemon juice to their home-made jams… if it was good for Grandma and Mom, then it’s good enough for me.

After 5 minutes, run your finger through the jam and if it stays put, jam should be ready. If you need another few minutes, put the pot back on the stove and cook for 5 minutes. Repeat until jam is the right consistency. If the jam is too thin, you can always recook for a few minutes, but another good thing is to use it as ice cream topping. If the jam is too thick put a spoonful each in tart shells and bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until pastry is nice and brown. You could also put some in the middle of muffin batter. Using your favourite muffin recipe, fill the muffin cup half full with batter, drop a spoonful of jam on top, then top with more muffin batter and bake. These muffins rival any sold in a donut shop. A hazard of this jam is, my husband won’t eat store-bought strawberry jam anymore! Enjoy. By Kathryn Hixon Lees, Hamilton Jam Recipe Ingredients • 2 600-gram bags of frozen fruit thawed (I have used strawberries, blackberries, raspberries and multi-berry) • 3 cups sugar • Splash of lemon juice Directions • In a large pot (I use my spaghetti pot), crush the thawed fruit, add sugar and lemon juice and bring to a boil. Let the mixture boil until it cannot be stirred down. • Lower the heat to just above a simmer and stir occasionally. • Cook for 1-½ hours. • Ladle into clean jars, let cool and then freeze. • When you want a jar of jam, bring out of freezer and let it thaw in the fridge. • This recipe makes approximately 4-5 250 ml jars.
