Recipe for Homemade Strawberry and Rhubarb Jam

As we have mentioned in many of our previous recipes/blog posts - we love homemade bread and buns and this is what we usually have for breakfast on the weekends. In our opinion the perfect weekend breakfast is a freshly baked bun with some homemade jam.

Many people think that homemade jam is a difficult and time consuming process - this is not true! Making your own jam is very simple and takes about 45 minutes. If you buy jam from the grocery store it is packed with additives. The great thing about this recipe for homemade strawberry and rhubarb jam is that it only requires four different ingredients, that is rhubarb, strawberries, sugar and a vanilla bean - it is that simple! And we love simple things!

Jam is in general not healthy, but we do not care that much if we have made it ourselves and know that the food is made by a simple and basic recipe without all the additives. Of course the expiration date for this homemade jam cannot be compared with the jam bought at the supermarket. However, if you remember to clean your glass jars with boiling water you can easily keep this jam for a couple of weeks. We can recommend serving the jam with these overnight pumpkin seed buns or our birthday buns.

  • 300 g rhubarb
  • 300 g strawberries
  • 200 g sugar
  • 1 vanilla bean

Instructions

  • Clean the rhubarb and strawberries and cut them into smaller pieces.
