Recipe Introduction

" This Strawberry-Cranberry Jam is delightful. I looks beautiful in a jar with a ribbon in a Christmas basket. "

List of Ingredients

2 1/2 quarts strawberries, coarsely chopped
1 (12 ounce) package fresh or frozen cranberries, coarsely chopped
2 (2 ounce) packages powdered fruit pectin
1 teaspoon margarine
5 pounds white sugar



Recipe

Sterilize jars and lids in boiling water for at least 10 minutes. Let simmer while making jam.

In a large saucepan, combine strawberries, cranberries, pectin, and margarine. Bring to a boil. Stir in sugar, and return to a boil. Cook for 1 minute; remove from heat.

Quickly fill jars to within 1/2 inch from top. Wipe rims clean, and put on lids. Invert jars for 15 minutes to help them seal.
