Hand-picked strawberries
Minnelea's Strawberry Extra Jam is born from selected strawberries, hand-picked from a small Cilento farm. The harvest moment is chosen to guarantee full colour, fruit integrity and natural sweetness, without forcing.
It's a jam that's simple in recipe and storytelling: only strawberries, cane sugar and careful processing. No decorations, no compromises.
50/50 recipe, 130% concentration
For each jar we use 130 g of strawberries to obtain 100 g of finished jam. The fruit loses water during cooking and what remains is the concentrated part: full aroma, soft structure, clean sweetness.
Final recipe: 50% strawberries and 50% cane sugar. No pectin, no thickeners, no preservatives, no colourings. The consistency comes from cooking time, not from additives.
Vacuum cooking at low temperature
Like our other sweet jams, the strawberries are processed by vacuum cooking at low temperature. A slow method, chosen to preserve the bright colour, fresh aroma and soft consistency.
The result is a deep red jam, velvety, balanced in sweetness — designed for those who look for the taste of the strawberry, not an industrial substitute.
How to use it
Perfect on toasted bread for breakfast, on rusks, pancakes or crêpes. In pastry it works for tarts, cheesecake and spoon desserts. Among sweet pairings it shines with plain yogurt, vanilla ice cream and panna cotta, where the strawberry's sweetness meets a neutral base that brings it out.
A jam to keep in the pantry for every day and every table.
