FRESH STRAWBERRY RECIPES
The following are some of my favorite fresh strawberry recipes! Enjoy...
I love covering a slice of homemade bread with this Freezer Jam recipe. It's so simple to make, and will disappear fast Also works beautifully with blackberries, blueberries and raspberries!
HOMEMADE STRAWBERRY JAM
1 quart fully ripened strawberries, washed and stemmed
4 cups white sugar
3/4 cup water
1 box fruit pectin (Ball pectin is great)
You are going to use plastic containers to store this in, you need to sanitize them. Rinse the container and lids in boiling water and make sure they are completely dry. In a bowl, add the strawberries one layer at a time, and crush them with a potato masher. Measure exactly 2 cups of berries, and place into a large bowl. Stir in the sugar, and let stand for 10 minutes - stirring occasionally. Mix the water and the pectin in a small pan and bring to a boil; stir for 1 minute. Remove from heat and pour this into the fruit mixture. Stir constantly for 3 minutes or until the sugar is dissolved. (If a few crystals are remaining, that's okay) Fill the dry plastic containers right away to within 1/2" from the top. Wipe off the edges and seal immediately. Let stand at room temperature for 24 hours. It is now ready to devour. You can keep it in the refrigerator for 3 weeks, or in the freezer for 1 year. If frozen, thaw frozen jam in the refrigerator.
This fresh strawberry recipe produces ice cream that is so rich and creamy - it's pure delight. I've also added directions to make this ice cream into "Strawberry Ice Cream Cheesecake."
HOMEMADE STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE ICE CREAM

1 TBS lemon juice
1/2 tsp homemade pure vanilla extract
1 cup fresh strawberries, pureed
5 large strawberries, sliced1-1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
*If using syrup or sugar packed frozen berries, you do not need the white sugar in this recipe. Blend all of the ingredients until very smooth; chill for 1 hour. After this, start your ice cream machine and set it to chill the mixing bowl for 5 minutes. Spoon the cold mixture into the machine, and set the timer for 30 minutes, or maximum time allowed. When it's done, serve it up in bowls and enjoy...
