Strawberry jam takes its character from whole strawberries, with 60g of fruit prepared for every 100g of preserve. Sugar, fruit pectin, concentrated lemon juice and citric acid complete the traditional family recipe, while the fruit remains at the heart of the jar and gives the preserve its vibrant, true strawberry taste.

Highfield Preserves handcrafts the jam in small batches using time-honoured open-pan methods. This traditional way of making preserves is matched by a soft set, giving the finished jam a home-made feel and a gently spoonable consistency when it is brought to the table.

Freshly baked scones and clotted cream are the classic partners for this strawberry jam, bringing its fruit character into a traditional cream tea. That familiar serving makes the jar a thoughtful pantry present for someone who enjoys traditional preserves, or a welcome choice to open when a cream tea is planned.
