Strawberry Freezer Jam

With 3 quarts of strawberries left, we needed recipes. We thought about jam, but I wasn't looking forward to the cooking and the sterilizing of jars. Then I ran across several things about freezer jam. Maybe I'm out of the loop, but did not know this existed.
Freezer jam does not require cooking, but you have to store the jam in the fridge or freezer. You simply use the Sure Jell pectin recipe. It is so simple! And it turned out yummy. This jam will be a softer set than cooked, but has a brighter, fresh picked flavor than the traditional method.
I ate some on toast this morning and Matt tried some tonight. We agreed it is tasty, as Mitchell says. The recipe made 5, 8 oz containers. You can keep one in the fridge for 3 weeks and freeze the others for up to a year.
So if you find a good fruit deal and like jam, make this!
