4 cups of fresh strawberries ( washed, capped and sliced in half)
2 cups of water
3/4 cup of sugar
3 tablespoons of flour
1 tablespoon of butter
dash of salt
Combine strawberries, salt and water in medium pot. Cook over
medium heat until strawberries are soft. Combine sugar and flour, pour enough hot juice from
berries to mix very thin. Add to strawberries stir until mixed well. Add butter and stir occasion-
ally until thickens. Serve with hot biscuits. Frozen strawberries may be used. If using other ber-
ries or fruits, adjust the amount of sugar to taste.
This recipe is one of the things mama made for breakfast, when I was growing up. My broth-
ers, sisters and I always looked forward to breakfast. In the summer we would pick wild
strawberries for the jam.
