Our friend Dawn picked up 8 pints (about 6 lbs) of Florida strawberries for us from a fruit truck ($30). We knew we needed to use them fast, so I made a batch of freezer jam, using the low sugar pectin I like to use. One of the benefits of freezer jam is that the strawberries aren't cooked, so they stay fresh tasting. Strawberry freezer jam recipes are pretty similar, this time I used this one, doubling it, except reducing the sugar to a scant 3 c sugar for the doubled recipe.
