Pineapple Jam
This is perfect way to preserve Pineapple with its natural aroma and taste intact. I like to retain the original color and aroma of Pineapple and hence have neither added food color nor essence.
Time Required: 25 Minutes
Ingredients:
1 Cup Pineapple Puree
1 Cup Sugar
A pinch of Cinnamon powder (Optional)
A pinch of Nutmeg powder (Optional)
Method:
Add 1 Cup water to the Pineapple puree and cook for 5 minutes. Seive and keep the water aside. Add Sugar to the sieved water and heat until the sugar melts. Now add the Pineapple pulp to the sugar-pineapple water and cook stirring continuously. Cook until most of the moisture evaporates and the jam is of “spreading” consistency. Add Cinnamon powder and Nutmeg powder and mix well. Store jam in dry airtight containers.

Hi Arathi,
Thanks for your encouraging words.
Pineapple jam can be stored in the fridge for about a month or two. When preservatives are not added to Jams and Jellies, it is always better to store in the fridge.
I have already posted Nellikai Morabba and the link is as follows – http://www.itslife.in/2009/01/bettadanellikayi-murabba
