Ingredients

  • 3 cups strawberries
  • 1 cup finely chopped rhubarb
  • 5 cups sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon finely shredded lemon peel
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 1 3/4 - ounce package regular powdered fruit pectin

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, crush berries using a potato masher. Measure 1 1/2 cups crushed berries. Stir rhubarb into the 1 1/2 cups crushed berries. Add sugar and lemon peel; stir to combine. Allow to stand at room temperature for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine the water and pectin. Bring to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add pectin mixture to fruit mixture, stirring for about 3 minutes or until sugar dissolves and mixture is no longer grainy.
