This recipe was extracted from Fruit recipes (1907) by Berry, Riley Maria Fletcher Mrs., page 66. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.
STRAWBERRY PRESERVES Use the best berries that they may need no washing. Allow a pound of sugar for each pound of fruit and place 154 FRUIT RECIPES together over a slow fire with no water. Do not mash in stirring and when skimming is required set on back of stove that scum may rise before trying to remove it. When sugar is dissolved boil fast for thirty minutes; remove fruit; place in jars; boil syrup five minutes longer, then pour over the berries and seal. TO SEAL STRAWBERRIES WITHOUT COOKING (Old-Fashioned Recipe) Take firm berries and weigh, allowing one-quarter pound of sugar for each pound of fruit.
