Pineapple Jam Recipe With Jalapeño Peppers

PINEAPPLE JAM RECIPE WITH JALAPEñO PEPPERS

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine pineapple, jalapeños, and calcium water. Over medium heat, bring to simmer, stirring frequently. Cook until the pineapple softens and takes on some translucency, about 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the sugar and pectin together in a small bowl. When the pineapple mixture is adequately cooked, add the sugar/pectin mixture to simmering fruit and stir until completely dissolved, about two minutes.
• Ladle into sterilized half-pint jars leaving ¼" headspace. Wipe rims clean, and place prepared lids and rings onto jars finger-tight. Process in a water bath canner at a full rolling boil for 15 minutes.
• After processing, remove jars from canner and allow to cool on a towel for 24 hours. Before storing, check for seal. Sealed jam will keep for a year in the pantry; store opened or unsealed jars in the refrigerator.
