Ingredients

4 cups crushed strawberries
1 cup unsweetened white grape juice
1 1.75-ounce package Ball No Sugar Needed Fruit Pectin


Directions

Prepare boiling water canner. Heat jars and lids in simmering water until ready for use. Do not boil. Set bands aside.

Combine strawberries and juice in a 6- to 8-quart saucepan. Gradually stir in pectin. Bring mixture to a full rolling boil that cannot be stirred down, over high heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim foam if necessary.

Ladle hot jam into hot jars leaving 1/4-inch head space. Wipe rim. Center hot lid on jar. Apply band and adjust until fit is fingertip tight.

Process filled jars in a boiling water canner for 10 minutes (for Utah altitudes). Remove jars and cool. Check for seal after 24 hours. Lids should not flex up and down when center is pressed. Makes about 6 half-pint jars.
