This is very tasty. Good on anything you'd put jam on. Great as a filling for a pineapple layer cake. Cooking time does NOT include the overnight setting. Ingredients:
1 pineapple, approx. 3-cups chopped |
1 lemon, juice and zest of, grated |
3 1/2 cups sugar |
2 1/2 cups pinot grigio wine |
Directions:
1. In a heavy pot, mix together the chopped pineapple, the grated lemon peel, the lemon juice (2 tbsp), and the wine. 2. Let set overnight. 3. The next day put pot on a medium flame and bring to a mild boil. 4. Add the sugar and bring back to a boil. 5. Continue to boil for about an hour or until the jelly-stage is reached. 6. If desired, use a potato masher to break-up the larger pineapple pieces. 7. Ladle into jars, seal and water bath process for 10-mins. 8. When processed, invert the jars to cool for an hour, then upright them. This prevents all pineapple chunks from floating to the top of the jar. 9. This yields 3 half-pints with a little left over for the fridge. |
