Just in case you find yourself drawn to the amazing deals on strawberries right now, here’s my recipe:
6 oz organic strawberries
Mash strawberries with a potato masher in a saucepan. Put over medium heat and heat until the strawberry juice has thickened, approximately 10-15 minutes (be careful not to burn!). Add sugar and lemon juice and continue heating — stirring often — until desired consistency is reached. Keep in mind that this jam will not be the gelatinous consistency of jelly, but a little looser and kinder.

Congrats! I can never keep strawberries around long enough to consider doing anything but straight consumption!
