Strawberry jam.
Strawberry jam, the recipe of which we offer you, turns out tender and sparse, not dense chewy berries. And with the addition of citric acid it acquires a more vivid color and a pleasant sour note. The greater the number of times to bring the strawberry jam to a boil, the thicker it will become.
Small tip: to make strawberry jam was more rich and flavorful, you need to collect the strawberries to the dry and hot weather for a few days before harvest there was no rain.
The smaller strawberries will come into contact with water, the tastier it will jam, and then rinse the fruit should be very quickly, literally dipping into the water and then pull out, dry it thoroughly in a colander or on a towel. But if you’re sure you’re clean berries, it is possible they do not wash.
