PINEAPPLE JALAPENO MARMALADE

• Store in refrigerator for up to 1 month or in the freezer for 6 months.

PINEAPPLE GINGER RHUBARB MARMALADE

Steps:

• 1. Here are the ingredients you will need.
• 2. Start by zesting one orange. Then skin the orange slices and cut into thin strips.
• 3. Cut rhubarb into 1" dice pieces. Drain unsweetened pineapple from the juice (save the juice for something else.)
• 4. Sanitize jelly jars (8-9 1 cup jars) while cooking the marmalade. I boil the jars for 5-10 minutes.
• 5. To one big sauce pot, combine all ingredients. Stir often to keep from sticking.
• 6. Cook marmalade until juices are clear (about 30 minutes.)
• 7. Pour marmalade into hot sterilized jars leaving 1/4" headspace. Secure sterilized lids and bands on jars and hot water bath for 15 minutes.

PINEAPPLE GINGER PRESERVES

Steps:

• In a heavy kettle, combine the sugar and water.
• Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved; boil until it registers 220F on a candy thermometer.
• Stir in the pineapple and the ginger; simmer the mixture, uncovered, stirring to prevent scorching for 1 hour, or until it registers 220 F on a candy thermometer.
• Remove the kettle from the heat and ladle the preserves into 5 sterilized 1/2-pint jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the tops.
• Wipe the rims with a dampened towel and seal the jars with the lids.
• Screw on bands finger-tight.
• Put the jars in a water bath canner or on a rack set in a deep kettle.
• Add enough hot water to the canner or kettle to cover the jars by 2 inches, and bring it to a boil.
• Process the jars, covered, for 10 minutes.
• Transfer them with tongs to a rack or countertop protected with a heat-resistant mat, and let them cool completely.
• Store the jars in a cool dark place.

PEAR MARMALADE

Steps:

• In a food processor, cover and process pears in batches until pureed. Measure out enough pears to make 2-1/2 cups. In a Dutch oven, combine the pineapple, orange juice, lemon juice, orange zest and pears. Stir in pectin. Bring to a full rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly., Stir in sugar; return to a full rolling boil. Boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat; skim off foam. Ladle into jars or freezer containers and cool to room temperature, about 1 hour., Cover and let stand overnight or until set, but not longer than 24 hours. Refrigerate for up to 3 weeks or freeze for up to 12 months.

PINEAPPLE-GINGER MARMALADE

Steps:

• Cut the pineapple into 1/4- to 1/2-inch (6-mm to 1.5-cm) cubes. Cut the orange, unpeeled, into quarters. Slice each quarter as thinly as possible, then chop the slices into 1/4-inch (6-mm) bits.
• Put the chopped pineapple and orange in a large pot or a Dutch oven. Add the water, bring to a boil over high heat, then decrease the heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from the heat, cover, and let stand at room temperature for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight.
• To finish the marmalade, add the sugar to the pineapple mixture, bring to a boil over medium-high heat, and cook until the mixture reaches the jelling point (use the wrinkle test, right, to judge when it's done).
• Stir in the candied ginger and rum, then ladle the marmalade into clean jars. Cover tightly, let cool, and refrigerate.
• Storage
• The marmalade will keep for at least 6 months in the refrigerator.
• the wrinkle test
• The sugar, moisture, and pectin content of fresh fruits is so variable that it's difficult to know exactly how long jam or marmalade must cook in order to gel. In my recipes, I shy away from giving cooking times because I don't want anyone setting the kitchen timer and walking away from a pot of simmering fruit only to come back to an unfortunate surprise. Rather than rely on cooking times and candy thermometers, I use the "wrinkle test" to test jams and marmalades. You'll need a cold plate for testing the preserves with the wrinkle test, so be sure to put one in the freezer before you start cooking.
• In most cases, it'll appear that not much is happening until 15 or 20 minutes into cooking. Then, the bubbles will get larger; this is when you should be more vigilant and stir the mixture, scraping the bottom of the pot to make sure nothing is sticking. When the juices become a thick, heavy syrup and the fruit mounds a bit is the point at which you should start checking for doneness using the wrinkle test: Turn off the heat and put a little spoonful of the preserves on the chilled plate. Return the plate to the freezer and, after a few minutes, nudge the jam with your finger. If it wrinkles, it's ready.
• If you'd prefer to use a candy thermometer, jam and marmalades set at about 220°F (105°C). Always clip the thermometer to the pot before cooking begins to avoid breakage that can result from temperature shock.
