Jalapeno Strawberry Jam

[heart_this] · Jul 16, 2018 · 14 Comments

Jalapeno Strawberry Jam

A fresh homemade strawberry jam with a hit of jalapeno heat!

One of my favourite things about summer is fresh strawberries! I enjoy eating them by the bowl full and using them in tasty recipes and the one that I make every summer is strawberry jam! Using fresh strawberries to make your own jam is a great way to preserve that burst of summer in a way that can be used throughout the year, long after the local strawberry season is over. I always make some basic strawberry jam and I like to change things up by adding extras like jalapenos! The recipe for this jalapeno strawberry jam is pretty much your basic strawberry jam recipe with the addition of as many jalapenos as you wish to add the amount of spicy heat to meet your tastes! This jalapeno strawberry jam can be used wherever you enjoy regular strawberry jam and I like it on a bagel with cream cheese!

    Kevin,
    Two questions:
    1) How long will a single batch last if refrigerated?
    2) Have you ever tried making your Jams and Jelly with a Sugar substitute like Stevia or Monk Fruit?

    Regards

      It keeps in the fridge for several weeks! I have not tried with Stevia or Monk Fruit.

    Definitely will make this one. Do you think with freezer pectin it will work too? Some of my favorite/most used recipes are yours — you are a great talent in the kitchen.

      This will work as a freezer jam. Adjust based on the instructions that come with the freezer pectin.
