Peppered Strawberry Jam (No Pectin)

This isn’t just your ordinary jam; this is a sweet and spicy creation that your taste buds will thank you for. Buckle up, because this jam is about to take your morning toast to new heights!

Peppered Strawberry Jam ### Ingredients:

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and sugar. Let it sit for about 30 minutes, so the strawberries soften and the sugar starts to dissolve, creating a delicious strawberry syrup.
Once you’ve got your sugary strawberry concoction, transfer it to a large pot. Add the freshly ground black pepper, lemon juice, and salt.
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally. You’ll want to bring it to a gentle boil. Keep an eye on it, as you don’t want it to splatter everywhere (trust me, it can happen!).
Reduce the heat and let the jam simmer for about 15-20 minutes. You’ll want to stir it frequently until it thickens to your desired consistency. It should coat the back of a spoon nicely.
Once it’s ready, remove the pot from the heat and let it cool for a few minutes. Now is a good time to taste it! Adjust the pepper if you’re feeling extra adventurous.
Pour the jam into sterilized jars while it’s still warm, seal them up tightly, and let them cool completely. Remember, this jam can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 weeks. That’s if you don’t finish it all in one sitting!

And there you have it—Peppered Strawberry Jam! This jam is not only easy to make, but it also adds a zesty twist to your everyday breakfast. So, slather it on toast, mix it into yogurt, or even pair it with cheese. The possibilities are endless. Don’t forget to share this gem with your friends and get ready for a taste explosion!
