Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh strawberries
- 250 grams ripe kiwifruits
- 500 grams granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 50 milliliters water
Directions
Step 1
Wash and hull the strawberries. Cut them into small chunks and set aside.
Step 2
Peel and dice the kiwifruits, ensuring there are no tough core pieces.
Step 3
In a large saucepan, combine the strawberries, kiwifruits, sugar, lemon juice, and water.
Step 4
Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring regularly, until the sugar fully dissolves.
Step 5
Increase the heat to medium and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Step 6
Skim off any foam that forms on the surface using a spoon or skimmer.
Step 7
Reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer, stirring occasionally, and cook for 20–25 minutes or until the mixture thickens. Test the consistency by placing a small amount on a chilled plate; if it wrinkles slightly when pushed, it's ready.
Step 8
Once the jam has thickened, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly for 5 minutes.
Step 9
Carefully pour the warm jam into sterilized jars, leaving about 1 cm (½ inch) of headspace at the top.
Step 10
Seal the jars with lids, and if desired, process them in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes to increase shelf life.
Step 11
Let the jars cool completely on a wire rack. Store in a cool, dark place for up to 1 year, or refrigerate after opening.
