Jammin'

I tried something new on Sunday. I made freezer jelly using the recipe found on the Sure Jell website. This was the easiest thing to do! I just needed some strawberries, sugar, pectin, and jars. Here's my before photo. I really misestimated. I used less than one container of strawberries and w-a-y more than four jars.

This is what the chopped and mashed berries looked like. After I added the pectin it looked exactly the same but a bit more stiff.

And here's my finished product: 11 jars of strawberry jam! Yummy.
