Strawberry jam

Introduction:

"Strawberries not only look bright and beautiful, but also have high nutritional value. Strawberry is cool in nature and sweet in taste. It has the effects of clearing heat and relieving fever, generating fluid and relieving thirst, diuresis and diarrhea, and throat and cough. According to the determination, every 100 grams of strawberry pulp contains 8 to 9 grams of sugar, 0.4 to 0.6 grams of protein, and 0 to 100 mg of vitamin C, which is 7 to 10 times higher than apples and grapes. Its contents of malic acid, citric acid, vitamin B1, vitamin B12, carotene, calcium, phosphorus and iron are 3 to 4 times higher than those of apples, pears and grapes. Taiwan people call strawberries "living vitamin pills", while German people call strawberries "magical fruit", so it is reasonable. The bright red strawberry jam looks charming and tastes sweet and sour. It really makes people like it ~ ~ ~ when making strawberry jam this time, we didn't weigh the weight of strawberries and sugar, because everyone's taste is different. Some people like to be a little bit sour, while others like to be a little bit sweet. This can be adjusted according to their own taste. I just boiled strawberry jam and tasted it. When I felt sour, I added some rock sugar. When I tasted it, I didn't want to stop the spoon. It was delicious, hahaha! For this reason, I also burned my tongue

Precautions: [how to clean strawberries correctly] to clean strawberries, it is best to use tap water to wash them continuously. The flowing water can prevent pesticides from permeating into fruits. Clean strawberries do not eat immediately, it is best to use light salt water or rice water soak for 5 minutes. Light salt water can kill the residual harmful microorganisms on the surface of strawberry, and rice washing water is alkaline, which can promote the degradation of acidic pesticides. When washing strawberries, do not take off the pedicels. If the pedicled strawberries are soaked in water, the residual pesticides will enter the fruit with the water, causing more serious pollution. In addition, do not soak strawberries with detergent, such as detergent. These substances are difficult to clean and easy to remain in the fruit, causing secondary pollution.
