Strawberry cordial jam




There are still a few end of the season strawberries available at the farmers market. Making a quick pot of jam to stick in the frig lets that summery taste linger into fall. Slather this on a nice thick slab of toast and make your self a hot cup of something to fight off the fall gloom.

Strawberry Cordial Jam
From Cooking Light, May 2009. Makes about 1 pint

Ingredients
6 cups chopped strawberries
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons crème de cassis
1 tablespoon water
⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon ground cardamom

Method
Combine strawberries, sugar, crème de cassis, water, cinnamon and cardamom in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and simmer for about 70 minutes until reduced to about 2 cups, stirring occasionally. Cool completely before covering and storing in the refrigerator for up to a month.

Rating: Tasty. The crème de cassis and spices come through nicely. Very easy. I'd definitely make this one again.
