PINEAPPLE JAM

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, bring the pineapple and sugar to a boil.
• Boil for 20 minutes, stirring often, until the jam is thickened.
• Pour into a clean 8 oz jar.

PINEAPPLE JAM

Steps:

• Peel, core, and coarsely chop pineapple. Place pineapple in a food processor and pulse 2-3 times until it's very fine, but not completely pureed. (Alternately, start with canned crushed pineapple.)
• Place pineapple in a jam pot or deep saucepan.
• For every cup of crushed pineapple, add 1/2 to 2/3 cup sugar. A medium pineapple yields about 3 cups crushed pineapple and would require 1 1/2 to 2 cups sugar.
• Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, stirring to prevent scorching. Cook on high for 25 to 30 minutes until the mixture thickens.
• Ladle into prepared jars leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
• If canning, process in a water bath canner for 10 minutes, adjusting for altitude.

PINEAPPLE JAM

Steps:

• Peel the pineapple and grate the flesh -- you should end up with about 2 cups. Put the pineapple and water in a small saucepan and cook over medium-low heat until the pineapple is soft, about 35 minutes.
• Add the sugar and lime juice and stir to combine. Cook until the mixture has thickened, about 45 to 60 minutes. Spoon the jam into a 16-ounce jar with a tight-fitting lid. Store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 months.

PINEAPPLE JAM (MADE EASY) RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• If you've never made jam, the water canning method, having a large pot with lid is what you'll need. I also have a jar rack (you can order a complete kit on Amazon.com). Prep the jars by cleaning them thoroughly (dishwasher is fine). I tend to heat mine by setting them in my large pot of water, then removing them with tongs. Set them on a large baking sheet, with a clean towel. Empty the undrained can of crushed pineapple into a large measuring cup, and add enough pineapple juice to equal 3-1/4 cups. (Buying six-pack of small pineapple juice is helpful.) Optional: If you like a less chunky jam, either use an immersion blender to break the pineapple down-- or carefully pulse in a food processor. In a large pot, add the pineapple and juice, and pectin and bring to a rolling boil. Add all of the sugar, at once and stir. Bring to a rolling boil, stirring constantly. Add the butter, and continue stirring for 1-3 minutes. (I like to put a metal spoon into the freezer. I dip the spoon into the jam and if it thickens well, then it's ready). Using a ladle, fill the sanitized canning jars (this makes 5 cups), and with a clean, warm, damp cloth, quickly wipe off the rims of the full jars and put the two piece lids on. Process the jars in a hot water bath for 10 minutes. Remove and cool on the counter.

PINEAPPLE JAM

Steps:

• ADD enough water to undrained pineapple to measure 3-1/4 cups. Place in 6- or 8-quart saucepot. Stir in pectin. Add butter to reduce foaming. Bring to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly.
• ADD sugar; stir. Return to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon.
• LADLE quickly into prepared jars, filling to within 1/8 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with 2-piece lids. Screw bands tightly.
• Process 5 minutes in a hot water bath. Remove jars and place upright on towel to cool completely. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middle of lid with finger. (If lid springs back, lid is not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.).
