How to Make Strawberry Jam!! Homemade Small Batch Preserves Recipe
Learn how to make a small batch of homemade strawberry jam! Sometimes you don’t want to make 12 pints at a time. Or maybe you don’t have a canner. Well, this recipe is for you. Enjoy!
What you’ll need:
2 lbs fresh strawberries
2 cups granulated sugar
1 Tbsp lemon juice
This recipe requires 2 lbs of strawberries which is approximately 4 1/2 cups of firmly packed chunked strawberries. You may use frozen berries if you wish but thaw them first. You can also use blueberries, raspberries, blackberries or any combination thereof.
Also, you cannot reduce the sugar in this recipe. It will not work. Since this is essentially a candy, it just doesn’t work with less sugar.
If you wish to use a candy thermometer, you can do so. You will need to cook this to 220*F.

Simply the bestest, simplest recipe 👌🏽 Thank you
Thank you, Sir! It’s a simple details recipe.
Look forward for more your videos!!
God blesses.
Strawberries here are about $10 plus per pound. We don’t grow them. I splurged and bought 2 lbs and made the jam. It came out beautifully. From hereon I’m making my own jam. Much thanks for this recipe!
How do you deal with the seeds of any berry?
Did you filter the seeds or strawberry pieces or do you leave them in the jam?
I love this recipe so much and look forward to doing it again in the future… I wanted to know can you do the same with peaches. I have peaches from my peach tree and I was wondering if you have to use pectin, for peach jam
Love it 🥰
Recycled jam jars, (sterilised in microwave, lids boiled for 15 minutes, ) hot jam poured in hot jars , lids on tight asap, works like factory seals !! My jam doesn’t spoil for years..
Great jam, thanks for sharing. cheers
How long can it last in the refrigerator before it expires once the jar is opened?
any substitute for sugar pls?
If you microwave the lemon for 20 seconds you get twice as much juice. Xx
Made it, loved it
Can one use a zero sugar substitute?
You, my guy, just got another sub.
This was so informative and the instructions were very easy to write down.
I bet this would be delicious when making homemade pop tarts 🤤
No sugar please
I cried my ass out😢😢bimbo I was expecting a happy ending 😢
Can I use lime juice instead if I m out of lemon?
does anyone know if it’s the same for other fruits like peachs, apples etc?
Made this recipe works amazing. Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤❤❤
OMG!!! This recipe is great. My first time! I’ll never buy preserves again.😀
I just made this recipe and it turned out insanely delicious 😋 i highly recommend it enjoy ❤
Hi, anyone have any Tips and ideas how I can adjust this if I want to add rhubarb?
Thank you for making a recipe for 2 ✌️
Made this yesterday! It was the best thing I have ever made! Thank you for the recipe! ❤
I used frozen fruit thawed then did this worked well.
something is not proportional with the sugar.. 1 cup equals to 200 grams of sugar. 400 grams on this amount of strawberries?? i think 240 grams is more then enough
Thanks for sharing 🌻
2lbs stawberry, 1/2 lemon juice, 2c sugar,
Save the tops for a quick and yummy tea
This recipe was so tasty but mine got a weird texture when I put it in the fridge
Is this a safe recipe to waterbath can?
I have been making this jam for years and last night it wouldn’t thicken and I thought maybe it it’ll thicken over night, does anyone think I can try and reboil tonight to try and thicken it again?
So you didn’t skim the foam. I usually do, but I’ll try your way.
i made this for my husband, he loved it
Can this jam be frozen?
Thank you for sharing…..Is brown sugar ok to use?
Set your pot in a slightly larger heavy skillet to prevent burning and even out the temp across the surface
I wish he was still making videos. I LOVE this channel and his tutorials are amazing!
Thank you. I made and it is perfect.
Love it❤
Just found this and tried it out 🎉🎉 easy and turned out delicious !!!
Is it the same way Making a cherry jam?
Love this recipe, came across this vedio 5 years ago and only use this recipe since. Been coming back to it every strawberry season since! Sending lots of love
Not in international mesures 🙄
Can you use other sugars, like monk, Stevie, brown,coconut
It’s not the same for ALL berries. There are a few that contain very little pectin & will not thicken like a normal berry. Autumn berries for one!
That’s a lot of sugar isn’t it?
Just watched the video, loved it. I would like to can it can you please give me the instructions for it. Than you
this is soo easy to make and delish have made it multiple times and even added other berries all turned out amazing! thank you for the recipe🥰
