It is a little early in the season for strawberries around here, but I did get a good price, and spring fever is upon me so I am making little jars of strawberry jam.
I cooked and mashed my berries with sugar and lemon juice, and ladled the syrupy goodness into my boiled jars. The first batch is processing now in my stock pot with a towel folded on the bottom since I no longer have fancy canning gear (in my younger years I did!)
