- Yield Makes 2 cups
Directions
- 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.
I don't think this is a waste of time and I loved the taste! To the person who said it cooked down to mush, well, that's jam and I had identifiable pineapple in mine. If one were to substitute canned pineapple for the fresh I can see how that might happen but not with a fresh pineapple. This will become a regular in our home.
This is a lovely recipe!!! I bought a pineapple that turned out to be sour. Instead of throwing it, decided to turn it into a jam. Searched for a recipe and this one looked interesting. Made the Jam. My wife and Kids loved it...
A tad-bit lengthy but worth it in the end. Easier methods are available for people who do not have time...just buy it from the supermarket shelf! Lol...
I get pineapples from bountiful baskets all the time and I am always struggling to find something to do with it and there is only so many times I can make pineapple upside down cake right? Someone mentioned that this was a waste of time and I will say it is not. It was delicious and as for there being no pectin...well there is no need to add citric acid (aka pectin) because your adding citrus juice (lime) that naturally contains citric acid. But all in all a nice basic recipe.
Not impressed. Add water to juicy pineapple and then cook it for 35 min? Waste of time. Why add the water to begin with? Add sugar then cook til firm? No pectin? Had to cook another 45-60 min? more time wasted! The pineapple was so overlooked it was unidentifiable mush. I'll stick w my regular pineapple jam.
Really good. Just perfect with the coconut bread. I will definitely hold on to this recipe.
