strawberry jam

strawberries were on sale at safeway so i bought more than what michelle and i would normally eat.  since these berries spoil really quickly, i decided to make home-made strawberry jam so they wouldn't go to waste.

recipe:

1 1/2 pounds of strawberries
1 cup of sugar
3 tbsp water
1 tbsp of kalamansi juice (or lemon or lime...but kalamansi taste the best)

directions:
combine all ingredients in a pot and bring to a slow boil, stirring frequently and scraping the sides.  do this for 45 min to 1 hour.

i promise you...this will be the best tasting jam you will ever have.  i told paul i'm never buying jams from the store anymore.  i'll start making my own using fruits that are in season.  

i'm just waiting for the jam to cool and i'll make me some toast!!!  =D
