あらすじ
In most contexts, "strawberry jam" means a sugary spread or preserve that uses strawberries. Strawberries are cooked with sugar and, occasionally, pectin to make this fruit jam thick and spreadable. After the strawberries have broken down and released their juices, they are simmered until they are sweet and preserve the fruit. Sugar is then added to the mixture. The next step is to boil the mixture until it thickens to your liking. There are many informal and metaphorical uses of the word "strawberry jam" than its literal one. For instance, in informal speech, one may say "strawberry jam" to describe a jam-packed container of strawberries as a metaphor for a jam-filled, crowded, or congested situation. On the other hand, regional or cultural differences in language may explain why this usage is less prevalent.
