PINEAPPLE JAM

Steps:

• Place pineapple in a jam pot or deep saucepan.

• Ladle into prepared jars leaving 1/4 inch headspace.

• The jam is great on it's own, but if you want, add a star anise, crystallized ginger, cinnamon stick, or vanilla.
• pineapple in a large saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Cook until juice evaporates and pineapple smells toasted or caramelized. Let cool. Spoon into jar. Store in the refrigerator.
