Strawberry Jam - Homemade And Heavenly

Image
  This is the best way to use strawberries at the peak of their season and you will instantly fall in love with the extraordinary fresh taste of this beautiful jam! You will be delighted to see how the natural red colour of strawberries will turn into a shiny ruby red shade and taste heavenly when the jam is made. I was careful not to use pectin or any other chemicals in this recipe but the humble lemon juice and white sugar, a combination that will bring out an addictive natural taste. The natural sweetness of strawberries along with their subtle sour taste is incredibly enhanced and more pronounced by lemon juice and at the same time acts as pectin. Also, I personally like the homemade touch of this gorgeous jam and the utter simplicity of the whole process of making it. The combination of strawberries, lemon juice, and white sugar makes magic! Tips: Remember, never exceed the boiling time 5 mins to dissolve sugar 15 minutes of boiling in a high flame Let the jam rest in the same pan

This oven-baked version is a real bliss on a busy day when you’re cooking 4 dishes at the same time for a party or fixing an elaborate meal.  Just stick the pudding into the oven, set the timer, and forget about it.  While you are attending to numerous other stuff, the oven will bake it to perfection! My advice is that you must curb your temptation to demolish the whole dish with the biggest spoon, you must muster all your courage and leave the baked pudding in the fridge for at least up to 4-5 hrs. After a long, undisturbed chill will give such a beautiful texture and taste to it. So, let’s make it: You'll need the following ingredients  : Ingredients
