Frozen strawberry jam is good for up to 1 year in the freezer. Once thawed, store it in the refrigerator, where it will last for 2-4 weeks.
Here's a breakdown of the storage and shelf life of frozen strawberry jam:
- Freezer: Up to 1 year
- Refrigerator (after thawing): 2-4 weeks
Key Considerations for Storage:
- Freezing: Use freezer-safe containers to prevent freezer burn. Leave some headspace in the container as the jam will expand during freezing.
- Thawing: Thaw the jam in the refrigerator for best results. This helps maintain its texture and flavor.
- Refrigeration: Once thawed, always store the jam in the refrigerator. Use a clean utensil each time you scoop out jam to prevent contamination.
- Signs of Spoilage: Discard the jam if you notice any signs of spoilage, such as mold, an off odor, or a significant change in color or texture.
