Strawberry vanilla jam

I’ve lot track of how many times I’ve made this jam. This recipe has been rolled out for every school fete, country fair and local show we’ve been to!

Originally this was one from the talented Tenina Holder but over the years I’ve made a few tweaks to the original. This recipe works with fresh or frozen berries, and will yield two fairly standard size jars. You can either cut your vanilla bean into very small pieces or leave it larger and fish out the bits.

Be warned! Do NOT try to double this recipe. It will boil over and cause a sticky mess! (Yep, I did it.)
