Strawberry Lemon Lavender Honey Jam<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1 lemon, zest and juice<\/p>\n
4 C. sliced strawberries<\/p>\n
3 T. Dutch Jell All Natural Lite pectin<\/p>\n
12 heads of lavender, tied in a bundle.<\/p>\n
1 1\/2 C. mild honey<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Put the lemon juice, lemon zest, berries, lavender, and pectin in a pot. (You can stir with the lavender bundle.) Bring to hard rolling boil. Boil for 1 minute. Remove the lavender bundle. Add honey. Bring to rolling boil and boil for 1 minute. Ladle into jars. BWB 10 minutes. Makes five 8-oz. jars. Notes: If you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want the odd lavender flower falling off into the jam, you can strip the flowers off and put them in a tea ball to steep in the jam as it cooks. I found it easier to just use the bundle to stir with as much as I could, then I switched to a spoon when I needed a stronger stirrer.<\/p>\n

About the pectin: I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been using bulk pectin this year from my local Amish store. You can probably use 1 pkg \/ 3 T. Ball pectin as well or Sure-Jell. Keep in mind that strawberries often take more pectin than other fruit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
