Tips:
1: Don't use an iron pan when stir-frying, you can use either an enamel pan or a stainless steel pan
2: If the strawberry is fried for too long, the color will turn black, so try to use a large pot with a wide mouth when frying, so that the water can evaporate faster, instead of using a narrow-mouthed milk pot and other pots.
3: Strawberry jam is rich in sugar, if the amount of sugar is reduced, the shelf life of the jam will be reduced
4: Lemon juice helps the extraction and effectiveness of pectin, so add a little lemon juice to the formula, but not too much, because too much lemon juice will overwhelm the umami flavor of the strawberry, you can squeeze it with fresh lemon For the juice, you can also use concentrated lemon juice.
5: The container for the jam must be clean and free of water in order to keep the jam for a longer time.
