Red Wine Strawberry Jam Recipes

STRAWBERRIES IN RED WINE

Steps:

• Mix the jam and red wine together in a bowl.
• Wash and hull the berries. Cut the smaller ones in half; quarter the larger ones. Add the berries to the bowl and mix gently but thoroughly.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, arranging the wrap so it touches the berries and helps keep them submerged in the wine mixture. Refrigerate until cold.
• Serve the berries and surrounding liquid in wine goblets. If desired, garnish with herb sprigs and serve with cookies.

SPICY STRAWBERRY JAM

Steps:

• Soak the strawberries in red wine for 10 minutes, then transfer to a heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. As soon as it starts to boil, add the ginger, brown sugar, cinnamon stick, chile pepper, red pepper flakes, apple cider vinegar and salt. Boil over medium heat, stirring every 10 minutes, until the preserve thickens.
• Remove the chile pepper and cinnamon stick from the preserves. Ladle into clean 1/2 pint jars, wipe rims with a clean cloth or paper towel, and seal with new lids. Store in the refrigerator.
