variety of strawberry varieties and tips for processing

In the fields, different strawberry varieties such as Rendevouz, Daroyal and Clery are currently ripening in the fields. In the next few weeks, pickers can look forward to a good selection. A little tip for those who want to keep their treasures collected for the winter: The preparation of jam is a way to preserve the aroma of the strawberries. Simply bring the fruit mixture to the boil with gelling sugar, fill it and turn it upside down to create a vacuum. A splash of lemon juice can also raise the taste.
