01 Step
Recipe View
In a large, microwave-safe bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and granulated sugar. Gently stir to ensure the strawberries are evenly coated. (Prep time: 2 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View
Microwave on high for 2 minutes. Carefully remove the bowl (it will be hot!) and stir gently. Return to the microwave and continue cooking in 2-minute intervals, stirring after each interval, until the jam has thickened and achieved a glossy sheen. This process typically takes 6 to 10 minutes. (Cook time: 8-12 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View
Carefully transfer the hot jam to a clean glass jar. Allow it to cool slightly at room temperature before sealing and refrigerating for at least 30 minutes to allow the jam to fully set. (Chill time: 30+ minutes)
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.
