Time: 35 min.

Stock up on cardamom and vanilla pods so you can make delicious, aromatic jam all berry season long. You won't need many berries, as this jam only has a two-week shelf life. Enjoy it immediately, spreading it on crispy toast or drizzling it over vanilla ice cream. Since there aren't many berries, the jam cooks quickly, preserving more of their vitamins. If you have raspberries on hand, add a few to the strawberries for an even richer flavor. Store the jar of jam in the refrigerator.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Place the vanilla seeds and pod in a heavy, non-reactive skillet. Add the sugar, orange juice, and cardamom pods and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the strawberries to the pan and stir once to coat. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and resembles jam, 20-25 minutes. The longer the jam cooks, the thicker it will be once it cools.
