NO-SUGAR APPLE STRAWBERRY JAM
Ingredients for 4 cups:
3 golden delicious apples
1 – 12 ounce can unsweetened apple juice concentrate
4 cups strawberries (1 pint)
5– 4” sprigs of sweet woodruff or 1 bag camomile tea
Directions:
Peel, quarter, and core the apples. Dice them, and combine in a 4 quart saucepan with the apple juice concentrate. Cover the pan and bring to a boil. Simmer, partially covered for 10 minutes. Rinse, stem and quarter the strawberries. Add them to the pan. Return jam to a simmer, cover and cook for 5 minutes.
Uncover the pan, turn up the heat to medium-high, and begin to actively reduce the liquid. Cook until a spoon drawn across the bottom of the pan causes a hissing sound. This will happen within 10 minutes.
Off the heat, crush the woodruff stems and add them to the hot jam. Steep for 5 minutes. Remove the woodruff stems and ladle jam into hot, sterilized jars to within 1/8” of the lip.
Wipe the rims clean, attach new lids, and screw the caps on tightly. Process jars in a boiling water bath, submerged by one inch, for 10 minutes.
