My best suggestion for this cold and blustery day is to get yourself some rhubarb and strawberries and making yourself a few batch of this easy and delicious jam. I promise this is the best strawberry rhubarb jam you will find. I've tried many recipes and finally found a winner in this!!
Strawberry-Rhubarb Jam
(from my little rhubarb book)
4 cups fresh rhubarb, diced
4 cups granulated sugar
1 cup fresh strawberries, cut into small pieces
1 3-ounce packing of strawberry-flavored gelatin dessert mix
Mix rhubarb, sugar, and strawberries in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat; stir in dry gelatin. Pour jam into freezer containers. Store in the refrigerator 2 weeks or freeze to enjoy all year-round!
Makes about 3 half pints.
