Directions
Strawberry and Rainier Cherry Jam, I had a lot of Rainier cherries that needed to be used right away and some strawberries in the freezer that I thought would help them make a great jam – and it did! This jam is now one of my kids favorites! used really sweet Strawberries, so if your strawberries aren’t as sweet you might want to add more sugar Prep time doesn’t include direction 1 (time to thaw strawberries and pit cherries – I usually do that the night before) , I’m a big fan of both cherries & strawberries, so the making of this recipe was right up my alley! Absolutely enjoyed making this great tasting jam, & I actually made a 2nd batch to use as a special addition to my Yuletide baskets ~ A very nice change from my usual cranberry offerings! Thanks for posting this wonderful recipe! [Made & reviewed in Newest Zaar tag]
