This is a recipe that I was pending to do and share in this blog. Many times I’ve been asked by homemade jams, and now I finally decided to use some delicious seasonal strawberries. I’ve noticed that there are several techniques for preparing them, the one I used here is the most basic, simple, and the jam was very good.
