120 minutes
Strawberry jam is a sweet memory of summer days captured in a glass jar. In Russian cuisine, it holds a special place as the sugar-soaked berries provide a vibrant aroma and rich flavor. Made in a multicooker, the jam retains the natural freshness of strawberries, transforming into a thick, shiny mass with light notes of cinnamon and a subtle tartness from lemon juice. This delicate dessert pairs wonderfully with toasts, pancakes, and pies, becoming a true treasure of summer mood in winter. The secret to its taste lies in the careful preparation of the berries and slow cooking that preserves their structure. A jar of such jam is not just sweetness but warmth, love, and traditions in every spoon.
