This strawberry preserves recipe is made in small batches to reduce the amount of time the fruit is cooked which helps it retain more of its intense fresh flavor. If you use about 25% unripe berries in the berry mix (they contain more natural pectin) you won’t need to add store-bought pectin.

The EatingWell Test Kitchen is a group of culinary professionals who develop and test our recipes. Our recipes go through a rigorous process that includes testing by trained recipe testers using various equipment (e.g. gas and electric stoves) and a variety of tools and techniques to ensure that it actually works when you make it at home. Testers shop at major grocery stores to research ingredient availability. Finally a registered dietitian reviews each recipe to ensure that we deliver food that is not only delicious but also meets our nutritional guidelines. Learn more about our nutritional philosophy and nutritional parameters.

As a former dietitian and nutrition advisor at EatingWell Sylvia Geiger worked closely with the culinary and editorial teams to ensure that our recipes were not only delicious but also met the nutritional parameters we set for ourselves.

A squeeze of lemon juice balances out the flavors for a not-too-sweet preserve that even offers some nutritional value.
