As delicious as fresh jam is, you don't always want a freezer full of it. This easy recipe makes just enough for you and for a gift.

 3 1/2 pounds strawberries, washed, hulled, and halved
 2 3/4 cups sugar
 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
 1 lemon, quartered
 2 to 2 1/2 tsp. rose water
Step 1
1

Mix all ingredients except rose water in a heavy medium pot. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until fruit releases juices, about 30 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring as needed to prevent sticking, until thick and slightly darker, about 1 1/2 hours. Stir in rose water.
