Ingredients

4 cups strawberries, chopped

1/2 cup good quality honey (My kind had a bit of honeycomb still in it, yum)

1/2 cup sugar

5 oz. dried lavender (to rehydrate, see instructions ) or 1-2 Sprigs, fresh lavender -I used dried Lavender, although if you are lucky enough to have fresh lavender, I would use a sprig or two of that, or a small palm full.

Knowing that dried herbs are often much more potent than fresh, I used only half an ounce, perhaps a very scant tablespoon when measured. I added a little bit of water to a bowl, stirred around the lavender to slightly rehydrate it, then added it to the jam.

1 packet Fruit Jell - Freezer Jam Pectin

5 jam containers, ready to use (They sell specialty Freezer Jam Jars, I believe by the same manufacturer, with cute purple tops.

Directions

In a large bowl, crush strawberries until only small pieces remain and mixture is quite liquid. This takes several minutes for me, using a makeshift 'masher'. Set aside

If desired, rehydrate lavender by adding a small amount of water in a bowl to your lavender. Stir and let sit for a minute. Drain, set aside.

In a small bowl, mix Pectin and sugar together until incorporated. Add to mashed strawberries. Add honey (microwaving if necessary to get it thin enough to pour). Stir for 3 minutes. Add lavender and lightly stir.

Ladle into clean jam jars, leaving 1/2" space at the top. Cap and let sit for 30 minutes. Store in your freezer until ready to use, or transfer to fridge and eat!
