Hull the strawberries and cut into pieces. Let the strawberries stand with the sugar or honey and the elderflower heads for 3 hours to allow them to draw their juices. Remove the flowers from the fruit mixture. Then boil the strawberries with the peppercorns for 5 minutes at a rolling boil. Stir the flowers picked from the heads into the jam. Fill clean jars with the hot jam, seal, and turn upside down for 5 minutes. Then turn the jam upside down again and let the jam cool. Store the jam in a cool, dark place.
