STRAWBERRY JAM 1 qt. strawberries (measured after they have been hulled and washed.) 6 c. sugar Clean strawberries and hull them. Then pour boiling water over them and then drain it right off. Put 4 c. sugar on the berries and bring to a boil and boil hard 2 minutes (stir a little). Take off and let stand 5 or 10 minutes and then add remaining 2 cups of sugar and bring to boil. Boil hard 5 minutes. Take off the stove and stir a while and skim, Let stand over night, but ever so often stir a little. This standing over night and frequent stirring keeps the berries evenly distributed thru the juice and so they won't float. Next day can while cold and paraffin. (Be sure you drain them well after the boiling water step, so there won't be any water in the berries - otherwise the syrup won't be as thick. ) Helen Pearson CHILE SAUCE 12 large onions 1 tbs. cloves 5 bushel tomatoes 1 tbs. nutmeg 3 green peppers 14 cup sugar 3 red peppers 1/3 cup salt 1 qt. malt vinegar Pickling spice (bag) 1 tbs. cinnamon Peel tomatoes and cut in t.
