Strawberry-Basil Jam

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs. Fresh Strawberries, Hulled and Sliced
  • 2 cups Sugar
  • 2 tbsp. Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 2 tbsp. Fresh Basil, Chopped
  • 1/2 tsp. Black Pepper, Ground
  • 1 tsp. Pectin (Optional for Thicker Jam)

Directions

  1. Mix sliced strawberries with sugar in a large sauce pan. Stir and mash lightly with a spoon to release juices, let sit for 10 minutes.
  2. Stir in lemon juice and bring to a simmer over low heat. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently, until jam thickens. NOTE: If using pectin, add it according to package instructions after the mixture boils.
  3. Place a small spoonful on a chilled plate. If it wrinkles when pushed, the jam is ready. If not, cook for a few more minutes.
  4. Stir in the chopped basil and black pepper. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Chill under refrigeration before service.
  5. Chef's Tip: If canning, pour hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving ¼-inch headspace. Seal and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Can be stored under refrigeration for up to 3 weeks.
