Wash, drain, slice

2. Combine the sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a pot and simmer for 10 minutes, until the sugar is dissolved.

3. Add the strawberries and continue to boil slowly over very low heat for 20 minutes, until the strawberries release some of their juices and most of the moisture evaporates from the mixture.

 

Cook over low heat


4. Test the jam by placing a small quantity on a cold dish. Once you see that the jam “gels” and stays when you tilt the dish, it is ready. If it doesn’t gel, cook for another 10 minutes and repeat the test.

 

Test the marmelade

 

5. Once the jam is ready, pour in clean glass jars, seal and let cool before storing.

 

Enjoy with bread, crepes, pastry filling etc


Tip: Sugar helps preserve the jam in the refrigerator for longer, or even outside the refrigerator for up to 6 months, in sterilized jars.

For a lighter version, you can remove part of the sugar by increasing the boiling time in order remove more water through evaporation. In this case you should be very careful with the storage conditions in your refrigerator and we recommend the use of sterilized jars.

Enjoy your jam with bread, ice cream, crepes, as filling in sweets and croissants and in many other ways!
