1 3/4 c. prepared fruit (about 1 pt. strawberries & 3/4 lb. ripe peaches)
4 c. sugar
1 tbsp. lemon juice
3/4 c. water
1 box powdered fruit pectin

First, prepare the fruit. Thoroughly crush about 1 pint fully ripe strawberries. Measure 1 cup into a large bowl or pan. Peel, pit and finely chop or grind about 3/4 pound fully ripe peaches. Measure 3/4 cup and combine with strawberries.

Then make the jam. Measure sugar and lemon juice, add to fruits, mix well and let stand. Mix water and powdered fruit pectin in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and boil 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir into fruit mixture. Continue stirring about 3 minutes.

There will be a few remaining crystals. Ladle quickly into glasses. Cover at once with tight lids. When jam is set, store in freezer. If jam will be used within 2 or 3 weeks, it may be stored in the refrigerator.
