Pineapple jam

Pineapple jam on cracker with a little bit of butter

Ho! My pineapple has deteriorated ... I left it too long on the counter and even if it is still good, it is much less appetizing, so let's take out the sugar, the lime and a knife. Pineapple is one of the fruits that no longer ripens after harvest, but this degrades ... and yes it rots. But in my case it is still recoverable to make a small homemade jam without additives and which can be kept for almost two weeks ... It's still better than sending all that to compost.

 4 cups cubed pineapple (one large pineapple makes about 4 cups)
 1 cup de sugar
 2 tbsp of lime juice
 ½ tsp of pectin
 Optional: Nutmeg, ground cloves or even vanilla.
1

Cut the pineapple into cubes, removing the excessively damaged parts.

2

Place the cubes in a pot with the sugar, pectin and lime juice. You can add a pinch of nutmeg and ground cloves if you wish, or even a little pure vanilla, if you want a more festive taste.

3

Bring to a boil then reduce heat to a little more than minimum, cover and simmer for one hour to one hour and a quarter in fact until the cubes are translucent.

4

Serve on homemade crackers or toast ... It's sweet and comforting while avoiding waste!
