                          This is one of our most requested recipes. I've published it before, but it is so easy that I thought I would repeat it for any newcomers.  
 
Ingredients 
1-pint strawberries, hulled and sliced 
2-tablespoons fruit pectin 
½ teaspoon butter 
1-cup sugar 
2 8-ounce jelly jars 
 
Directions 
1. In a medium sized bowl, crush the strawberries with a potato masher. 
 
2. In a skillet, combine the crushed strawberries, pectin, and butter. 
 
3. Stirring constantly, cook over medium-high heat, until the mixture boils. 
 
4. Add the sugar and bring to a boil. Boil for 1 minute and remove from the heat. 
 
5. Pour the jam into the jars. Seal. Refrigerate until the jam is set, approximately 6 hours. Keep jam refrigerated. It will keep for up to 3 weeks.
