Korea life - Day 44 (week 7) / (Seoul) making of strawberry jam

Korea Life - 7 Apr 2014 (day 44 week 7)

We were able to make strawberry jam with the strawberry that we picked at strawberry buffet yesterday
PQ made before, so according to her, it only just need 4 things!!

Strawberry jam making

Thing needed -
Strawberry
Lemon
Sugar (optional)
Energy to keep stirring  >u<

Steps - (fire MUST be in small fire at all time)
1) Strawberry some cut into small piece , some mash it up & get ready lemon
2) Put 2-3 spoon into the freezer first (you will need this to test if the sauce is done)
3) Cooked the mash up strawberry first, once is boiling add in the cut strawberry
4) Once is boiling again, add in lemon juice (you can add in the lemon if you like it sour)
5) Keep stirring as it will burn if you don't stir. Form will form up, up to you if you want to remove the form or to keep it. (I didn't remove it as I will have lesser jam at the end)
6) Once the sauce start to get thicken, take out 1 spoon from the freezer to try. If the sauce don't spill off the freeze spoon easily, it means that is done !!
7) Wait till is fully cool down then bottle it up

How long it take will depend on how much of strawberry you cook. I cooked quite alot so it took me around 40 min (excluding the cooling period of the jam)

Food recipes - kimchi fried rice

With no parent around to help me to prepare meal, I have to learn how to do my own meal from now on. Luckily PQ is a good cook that I can learn from. Although all of PQ's recipes are quite easy while I looked at her getting all the thing ready but for someone who don't cook, is not easy to remember all the steps, so i will have to note down step by step and read it again before I cook.
