If anyone has a good recipe for jam, please share! It seems like the plants double every year! I planted only 3 plants on a small hillside. Now they cover 1/4 acre after only 3 years! I am going to have to do some thinning in the fall so we can reach all those berries.
Last year we picked almost 50 lbs and tried to make jam, but it never got jelled so I gave out strawberry syrup for Christmas! It tasted great, just runny. I added extra pectin but still no good. I will try again this year and add even more. Maybe I will do a reduction and simmer off some of the liquid.
Well, I better get my muck boot on and get out there before the birds get them.
