Origin: Madrid, Spain
Source: Anonymous, 1920
Ingredients
- equal weight sugar
- equal weight strawberries
Instructions
- Weigh out equal amounts of sugar and strawberries. Clean the strawberries thoroughly, remove the hulls, and place them in a pot with cold water. Bring to a boil; as soon as they reach a rolling boil, remove from heat, drain well, and pass through a sieve. Return the fruit pulp to the pot and bring to a simmer until it thickens slightly. Add the sugar and continue boiling, stirring constantly to prevent sticking, until the jam reaches the desired consistency.
