"The secret trick to making beautifully colored strawberry jam without it getting mushy or crystallizing involves using the right cooking techniques and ingredients. Here are a few key tips:
Choose Fresh, Ripe Strawberries: Make sure your strawberries are fresh and fully ripe for the best flavor and color.
Use the Right Amount of Sugar: Too much sugar can cause crystallization, while too little can prevent the jam from setting properly. The proper ratio is key.
Add a Bit of Lemon Juice: Lemon juice helps balance the sweetness and prevents the jam from becoming too runny, while also enhancing the color.
Cook on Low Heat: Cooking the jam on low to medium heat prevents the fruit from breaking down too much and preserves its vibrant color.
Test for Doneness: Use the plate test (placing a small amount of jam on a cold plate and running your finger through it) to check when it’s ready. This will ensure the jam isn’t overcooked.
Avoid Stirring Too Much: Stir gently and infrequently to prevent the fruit from turning mushy.
By following these steps, you'll create a smooth, beautifully colored jam that retains the essence of fresh strawberries, without becoming mushy or crystallizing."
