Mama’s Strawberry Jam
4 cups
of fresh strawberries ( washed, capped
and sliced in half)
2 cups of water
3/4 cup of sugar
3 tablespoons of flour
1 tablespoon of butter
dash of salt
Combine strawberries, salt and water in
medium pot.
Cook over medium heat until strawberries
are soft.
Combine sugar and flour, pour enough hot
juice from berries to mix very thin.
Add to strawberries stir until mixed
well.
Add butter and stir occasionally until
thickens.
Serve with hot biscuits.
Frozen strawberries may be used. If
using other berries or fruits, adjust
the amount of sugar to taste.
This recipe is one of the things mama
made for breakfast, when I was growing
up. My brothers, sisters and I always
looked forward to breakfast. In the
summer we would pick wild strawberries
for the jam.
Did You Know?
Your gravy will have less lumps if you
will add a pinch of salt to the flour
before mixing it with water.
