For a smoother jam, use an immersion blender to puree the strawberries slightly after cooking.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking, depending on the sweetness of your strawberries.
This jam is best enjoyed within 1-2 weeks and should be stored in the refrigerator.
Feel free to experiment with other berries, such as raspberries or mixed berries.
A squeeze of lemon juice can enhance the flavor and act as a natural preservative.
