When you luck into fresh strawberries, there's no better way to use them up than in jam, and this jam is as easy as can be. With just a few minutes of effort, you'll be reaping the rewards for months to come. Somehow freezing seems to capture that just-picked flavor better than almost any other form of preservation, so don't think for a minute that this easy recipe is too good to be true.
