Wonderfully Pom Strawberry Jam

Servings: 4

Preparation duration: -1 minutes

Cooking duration: -1 minutes

 

Ingredients:

8 cups Strawberries, Roughly Chopped

1 cup Pom Wonderful Pomegranate Cranberry Juice

3 cups Sugar

1 Lemon, Juiced

1/4 teaspoon Salt

2 teaspoons Vanilla

Equipment:

potato masher

pot

kitchen thermometer

Cooking instruction summary:

Combine Strawberries and Pom Juice in a large stock pot and mash the berries roughly with a potato masher. Cook the mixture on medium heat, covered, for about 10 minutes being sure to stir frequently. Add in the sugar, salt, and lemon juice. Attach a thermometer to the pot and continue to heat, uncovered and stirring every few minutes, until temperature hits 220 degrees, being sure to skim off any excess foam from the top of the jam as it forms. (This step can take some time. It took about 45 minutes for me to reach the adequate temperature) Note: You can also test the consistency of your jam by keeping a spoon next to you in a glass of ice water. To test, pour a small amount of the cooking jam onto the chilled spoon and allow it a minute or two to cool. If the consistency is what you expect it to be, you're good to go. If not, keep it over the fire a bit longer. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla. Store jam in fridge or can in a hot water bath using sterilized containers.

Food Joke

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
