Best Old Fashioned Strawberry Preserves Recipes
OLD FASHIONED STRAWBERRY PRESERVES/JAM
A simple easy preserve recipe that may be successfuly frozen, I freeze large quantities in plastic containers when berry season come around, it makes a lovely spread for toast, scones or waffles --- this also works well using fresh blueberries or raspberries :) --- 2 cups of sugar will give you a very sweet taste if you prefer a preserve that is not too sweet then use 1-1/2 cups sugar or even a little less.
