Strawberry Jam

For each pound of berries take three fourths a pound of sugar. Put the berries, carefully hulled, washed, and drained, over the fire.

Let heat slowly till they are softened throughout. If eight quarts or more are to be made, pour off a pint of juice and can for some other use. Break up the berries with a slitted wooden spoon, then add the sugar and let cook until thick. Store either as canned fruit or as jelly. a
