By 1For_Him

Ingredients

• 1 pint strawberries
• 1 cup raspberries
• 1 cup sugar
• 3 T powdered fruit pectin
• 1 T lemon juice

Preparation

Step 1

Using hot, sudsy water, wash two 8-oz canning jars and lids, rinse well, and dry thoroughly. (Or use plastic freezer containers.)

Hull the strawberries, rinse them, and cut them in pieces. Put in large non-stick saucepan. Rinse raspberries and add them to the pan. Gently crush the berries with a potato masher. Stir in the sugar, pectin, and lemon juice.

Stirring constantly, gradually bring the mixture to a full boil and continue boiling for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and divide the jam between the 2 containers, leaving at least 1/4 inch of air space at the top.

Screw on the jar lids and let cool. Allow to sit on the counter for several hours before transferring them to the refrigerator.
