Turkish Delight Tea Infused Strawberry Jam Recipe

Ingredients

• 500g strawberries, washed, hulled and chopped
• 1 ½ cups sugar
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 6g of Turkish Delight tea in a Paper Filter Pouch

Method

1. Place strawberries into a 3-litre capacity heatproof microwave-safe bowl such as Pyrex. Add sugar and the lemon juice plus the paper filter pouch of Turkish Delight tea. Microwave, uncovered, for 4 minutes on HIGH(100%) power. Stir. Remove pouch having first squeezed the wonderful flavour from the tea into the strawberries.
2. Microwave for a further 15 minutes on HIGH power (jam should still by runny), or until jam reaches setting point (see hint).
3. Spoon hot jam into hot sterilised jars. Seal. Turn jars upside down for 2 minutes. Turn right-side up. Cool.
4. Once opened, store in the fridge.

Hint: To check if jam has reached setting point, place 1 teaspoon of jam on to a chilled saucer. Place in a freezer for 1 -2 minutes or until jam is at room temperature. Run your finger through jam. If the surface wrinkles and stays in 2 separate portions, it’s ready to be used.
