04:05 Adding in the chia seeds
05:13 Lading the jam into jars
06:40 Tasting the jam
INGREDIENTS
- 5 lbs strawberries, washed and hulled
- 1 1/4 cups sugar
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
Instructions
In a large stock pot, combine the hulled and washed strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Use a potato masher to crush the berries slightly. Place the stock pot over medium heat and bring to boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes.
Once the jam has cooked for 5 minutes and the sugar is dissolved, remove the jam from the heat. Add the chia seeds and stir. Allow the chia seeds to thicken for 5 minutes and stir again. Check the consistency of the jam by placing a small amount on a frozen plate. As the jam cools, it will show its true consistency. Add more chia seeds, one tablespoon at a time, and allow them to thicken for 5 minutes until the desired consistency is achieved.
Pour into airtight containers, label, and freeze the jam. The jam will freeze solid but will thaw in the refrigerator overnight. If kept in the refrigerator, the jam will last 2-3 weeks.

    Canning doesn't scare me but the sugar sure does. Even the low sugar sure gel recipes are so sweet to me. I just got some monkfruit to try.

    The strawberries in our area are so sweet, I hate to add all the sugar most recipes call for. This is a nice alternative!

    Great video! Okay...off to find somewhere to go strawberry picking this weekend. Curious if we could use other berries as a substitute, blueberries maybe? Also, loving that you don't need a ton of sugar!

    Since you're using chia seeds to thicken sugar substitute is fine.
