How to make

Ingredients:

1.25 kilogram strawberries – hulled and cut in half or quarters if large

Juice of one lemon

One tablespoon Nielsen-Massey Rose Water

900 grams Preserving sugar

Step-1
Put the strawberries into a large bowl with the lemon juice and set aside for at least one hour.
Step-2
Place the strawberry mixture into a large preserving pan (or a very large saucepan) and cook over a low heat for ten to fifteen minutes until the strawberries have reduced to a soft pulp – you can add a little water if the fruit sticks to the base of the pan.
Step-3
Add the sugar and stir over a low heat until it is completely dissolved. Raise the heat and bring to the boil.
Step-4
Cook the jam at a rapid boil, stirring occasionally to prevent the jam burning on the bottom of the pan. The jam should take seven to ten minutes to reach setting point – to test when it is ready spoon a small amount of jam onto a cold saucer. Leave for one minute and then, using the tip of your finger, push the jam, if it wrinkles then the setting point has been reached.
Step-5
If it isn't quite ready, continue to boil the jam and test two minutes later.
Step-6
Remove from the heat, stir in the Nielsen-Massey Rose Water and taste to see if you would like to add a little more.
Step-7
Add edible glitter a little at a time until your jam is sparkling!
Step-8
Towards the end of the cooking time, sterilise the jars. Preheat the oven to 120C/fan 110C. Wash and dry the jars, place them on a baking tray and heat in the oven for ten minutes.
Step-9
Carefully pour the jam into the hot jars, add a waxed disc to each one and seal with a lid. When the jam is cold, it is ready to eat! This will then keep for a year; refrigerate once opened.
