Strawberry season arrives and it's time to jam!

I went to the fruit stand this Thursday and was very excited to see the low price of strawberries. This seemed like the perfect opportunity to try making and canning strawberry jam.

4 lb. Strawberries, sliced
1/2 cup Sugar
1/2 Lemon, juice
1/2 cup Water
No Sugar Needed Pectin

Combine the Strawberries, Sugar, Lemon, and Water. Bring the Strawberry Combination to a boil and add Pectin as per the package instructions.

If you want to can the jam, follow these canning procedures
