OR we could call it Strawberry Sauce too...
I had never made jam before, and after looking at a bunch of recipes online I settled on Ina's recipe, because Ina is a superhero. It was very simple, although I got slightly tired of hulling and halving pounds of strawberries. But it was worth it! Her recipe didn't call for smashing the berries at all, but I like my jam less chunky, so I used my handheld mixer to blend them a bit. It's definitely on the thinner side of jams (maybe I could have thickened it by simmering longer?) but that doesn't bother me, because you can drizzle it on top of vanilla ice cream and that is a good thing.
