Strawberry jam

Strawberry jam

Fresh strawberries, naturally rich in vitamin C, are cooked down with sugar into a glossy red jam that bottles the flavor of early summer.

Instructions

    【Ingredient Introduction】Strawberries are rich in nutrients and contain fructose, sucrose, citric acid, malic acid, salicylic acid, amino acids, as well as minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, and iron. In addition, they also contain a variety of vitamins, especially vitamin C, which is very abundant—100 grams of strawberries contain 60 milligrams of vitamin C. The carotene present in strawberries is an important substance for synthesizing vitamin A and has the effect of benefiting the eyes and nourishing the liver. Strawberries also contain pectin and rich dietary fiber, which can aid digestion and promote smooth bowel movements.

    Wash strawberries with salt water. Soak them in salt water for 15 minutes to better clean residual pesticides and small insects.

    Remove the strawberry tops, and add dried cranberries and dried longans (according to personal preference, cranberries and longans are good for regulating women's endocrine system, and can be paired together).

    Add honey (which is rich in glucose) and maltose (which has a more fragrant taste than white sugar) and marinate for 15 minutes.
