Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Strawberry Rhubarb Jam with Jell-O.
Step 1
Begin by placing the chopped fresh rhubarb and white sugar into a large saucepan or stockpot, then cover the mixture and let it rest overnight.
Step 2
This allows the rhubarb to release its natural juices, creating a flavorful base for your jam.
Step 3
The following day, heat the rhubarb and sugar mixture over medium heat until it reaches a rolling boil.
Step 4
Once boiling, lower the heat and let it simmer gently for 12 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.
Step 5
After the time has elapsed, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the dry strawberry-flavored Jell-O until it is completely dissolved, infusing your jam with a delightful berry essence.
Step 6
Carefully pour the hot jam into sterilized jars, ensuring they are filled to the brim.
Step 7
Allow the jars to cool at room temperature before placing them in the refrigerator to set.
Step 8
Enjoy the sweet, tangy goodness of your homemade rhubarb-strawberry jam, perfect for spreading on toast or adding to desserts.
