(The rest went into Strawnana Bread and just plain munching.) Being gluttons for punishment (or just strawberry lovers), we went back this week and picked 6 more pounds.
My freezer jam recipe (from the pectin box) called for 2 cups of crushed strawberries to be mixed with 4 cups of sugar and allowed to sit for 10 minutes. Meanwhile the pectin was mixed in a small saucepan with 3/4 cup water and boiled for 1 minute. The pectin/water was then mixed into the strawberry/sugar mix. Finally, we poured the jam into jars and let it sit out for 24 hours before freezing (for up to 1 year) or putting in the fridge (for 3 weeks).
This was delicious and had a taste somewhere between jam and dessert sauce. (Yes, I put some over ice cream!) I'd be interested in reduced sugar-increased berry recipes though. (I used SureJell pectin, so the recipes would need to work with that kind of pectin.)
