## Notes

* firstly, finely chop the strawberries or blend to puree to reduce the cooking time. however i prefer few chunks of strawberries in my jam.

* additionally, strawberry can be substituted with any berries like raspberries or blackberries to make jam.

* further the jam stays good for a month or more when refrigerated.

* also, to store for longer time, transfer the jam into hot sterile jars, leaving 1 cm headspace and seal jar in a water bath.

* finally, keep stirring **homemade low sugar strawberry jam** else it might burn from bottom.
