The Easy Chef makes Strawberry Jam.

Making jam

I found some freshly picked strawberries at our local grocery store yesterday afternoon so I whipped up a batch of home made strawberry jam.  If you have not made this, you should try it.  It is the easiest thing to do and the jam is just wonderful.

I use the recipe included in the Sure-Jell package for freezer jam.
(You need 1 1/2 pounds of strawberries, 1 package Sure-Jell, four cups sugar and 3/4 cup of water.)

  1. OK, so... I do look a little homeless (and I can say that). Or maybe just Mary Kate and Ashley-esque. Kinda the same style.

    I want some toast and jam :)

    The video made me laugh out loud! : )

    I'm lucky....my grandma makes strawberry jam for the whole family. Her strawberry jam and sweet relish are hot commodities in our family.

    Thanks for the smiles!

  4. Does it work with less sugar?

    1. Ball No Cook Freezer Jam takes about half the sugar. It is a bit loose but has the best flavor and is not as sweet.

  5. I love homemade jam. I used to like the frothy stuff (my mother would skim it off the top into a blow and I'd put it on Saltine crackers). Your family is lucky! Like Steph, I'd probably need to consider a lower sugar version if I were to make it now.

    So love the weinermobile photos and video--glad you're sharing some of your Vines here because I love seeing them in your Vine feed.

    That Asher...adorable.

  7. Karen, I was wondering the same thing :-)

    a day late, but had to say: I love strawberry jam from the freezer. The sweeter the better ;-)
