Step 1

Wash the jars in hot soapy water, rinse well and dry.

Step 2

If the strawberries are already quite clean, then place them in a colander and rinse them under cold water, place them (single layer) on a dry clean tea towel and gently dry. Then hull and slice or chop depending on your preference.

Step 3

If the strawberries are not very clean (eg. just picked or it just rained and they have some dirt on them) then fill a large bowl with cool water, add the strawberries and move them around until they are clean. Remove the strawberries and place them (single layer) on a dry clean tea towel and gently dry. Then hull and slice or chop depending on your preference.

Step 4

Place the sliced or chopped strawberries in a large bowl, sprinkle with lemon juice and sugar. Gently toss together. Spoon into the clean jars, leaving approximately one inch ¾ inch / 2 cm free space between the strawberries and the top. Then place jars in the freezer. Will keep up to a year. Enjoy!
