Strawberry preserves

Strawberry preserves

My preserves haven't set up yet (I used a BBB recipe cut in 1/2). How
long should it take? They are still perfectly sealed, so if they don't
ever get firm I could use them for syrup?

<cough> We've all made "Fabulous Strawberry Ice Cream Topping." :-(
Use about 1/4 slightly underripe berries for a better set.

Out/up here in the southwest us we grind up some kinda hot peppers in it and
make dipping sauce for fried stuff.
'Nother dipping sauce I use that could be adapted: homemade plum jam + 1-3
T. real ground horseradish (not the creamed stuff) + dash of worchestershire
+ squirt of ketchup.
Pour over pound (or angel food) cake, top with a mint sprig, tres elegant,
no?
And who says you haveta spread preserves? Put some in a leetle cute bowl
and dip yer toast. We're milleniel citizens, we can do anything. I have got
to get this dictionary working.
