Ready to add a burst of tangy sweetness to your morning toast? We've got just the thing—our Strawberry Rhubarb Jam! This delightful spread is a perfect marriage of fresh, ripe strawberries and tart rhubarb, all packed into a jar with the help of our Denali Canning Lids.

Overview of the Dish

This Strawberry Rhubarb Jam is a summer classic that yields approximately 8 to 10 cups. The combination of sweet strawberries and tart rhubarb creates a uniquely refreshing flavor that's just as delightful on a piece of toast as it is spooned over vanilla ice cream. And with the assurance of our canning lids, you can enjoy this seasonal treat all year long!

 

Ingredient List 📋

Here's what you'll need to make this summer delight:

  • 4 cups chopped fresh strawberries
  • 4 cups chopped fresh rhubarb
  • 6 cups sugar
  • 1 packet (1.75 ounces) powdered fruit pectin

 

Cooking Instructions 👩‍🍳

  1. In a large pot, combine strawberries, rhubarb, and sugar. Let sit for 2 hours to draw out the juices.
  2. Stir in the pectin and bring the mixture to a rolling boil over high heat, stirring often.
  3. Continue to boil, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
  4. Remove from heat and skim off any foam.
  5. Quickly pour into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Apply and secure Denali Canning Lids.
  6. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.

 

Pairing Ideas 💡

The strawberry rhubarb jam pairs wonderfully with a warm buttered toast, or you can swirl it into your yogurt or oatmeal for a fruity twist. Looking for a dessert option? Top off your vanilla ice cream with a spoonful of this jam!

 

Ingredient Substitutions 🔄

If fresh strawberries or rhubarb aren't available, you can use frozen ones. Just make sure to thaw and drain them before using. For a less sweet jam, feel free to reduce the amount of sugar.
