What are we eating? | Highlight strawberries

Before the weekend, all readers who cook will ask themselves this eternal question: What shall we eat? To inspire you, Press Here are some tips to help you keep your mouth watering.

Delightful strawberry jam with basil

Ingredients

• 2 kg of strawberries
• 500 grams of honey
• 500 g sugar cane
• 1 small bundle of basil

preparation

• 1. Melt the honey and sugar in a saucepan.
• 2. When boiling, add strawberries, clean (if necessary) and pre-mix.
• 3. Cook over medium heat. Jam is better to cook quickly.
• 4. Remove the foam that forms on it. Renee does this when food is being prepared to prevent it from re-entering the fruit.
• 5. The mixture is ready when heated to 105 ° C (221 ° F) with a sugar thermometer.

Note:

Another way to check if the jam is ready is to place it on a very cold plate, for example, out of the refrigerator. We put the dish in the fridge for a few minutes. We take it out, we move our finger in the middle to detect congestion, and if it is well detached, it is ready.

Pot

• 6. Fill the jars in bulk, leaving about 1 cm below the edge.
• 7. Insert 1 or 2 basil leaves (previously washed) into each pot using a knife.
• 8. Wear the cover and trim it tightly.
• 9. Return the jam jars to the oven at 110 ° C (230 ° F) for 10 minutes.
• 10. Take it out, and let it cool.
