Strawberry Balsamic Jam (using pectin) Recipe - (3.9/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 quarts fresh strawberries
1 package powdered pectin
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar, or use 1/4 cup lemon juice
7 cups of sugar
1 pat of butter
NOTE: measure the quantity of strawberries, once you have hulled and mashed them.

Steps:

  • Hull the strawberries, wash and then drain them. Mash them, in layers. (I pulse them in my food processor until they are the size I prefer... small chunks, but not totally pureed). Combine the strawberries, balsamic vinegar and the pectin in a large pot. Bring to a boil, stirring so it doesn't stick. Slowly add the sugar. Bring to a continuous roll, stirring frequently, so it doesn't stick. Bring to a gel stage (approximately 10 minutes). I like to chill a plate in my freezer. Spoon a little of the cooked fruit on the cold plate. Run your finger through it, and see if it separates. Let it sit a minute more and feel the texture. If it gels, it's ready. Pour into sterilized clean class jars with lids. Set the filled jars in a rack, covered by at least 2" of boiling water. Keep the pot covered and set a timer for 10 minutes, from when the water begins to rapidly boil. Remove from the pot, carefully, with a jar lifter onto a clean towel. Listen for the "pop" of the vacuum on the lids...and/or press a finger on the top. If it's firm, you have a good vacuum. If a jar is not sealed, properly, you can repeat the water bath boil method, or refrigerate this jar and eat within 2 weeks.

This jam is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think it would be great as a glaze for grilled chicken or fish.

This jam is a great way to use up leftover strawberries. I always have a few extra strawberries at the end of the season and this is a great way to use them up.

I'm not a big fan of strawberries, but I actually really enjoyed this jam. The balsamic vinegar mellows out the sweetness of the strawberries and makes it more palatable for me.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my jam turned out too runny. I'm going to try again with a different recipe.

I had some trouble getting the jam to set, but after a few tries I finally got it right. It was worth the effort, though, because the jam is delicious!

This jam is a bit tart for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be great paired with a sharp cheese or on a grilled chicken sandwich.

I love that this jam is made with pectin instead of sugar. It's a healthier option and it still tastes amazing.

I've never been a fan of balsamic vinegar, but this jam changed my mind. The vinegar adds a subtle complexity to the jam that makes it really special.
