Pineapple Preserve

Homemade Pineapple Preserve

Homemade pineapple preserve brings bright tropical flavor to your table. First, you peel and finely chop fresh pineapple. Then, you swim it in sugar and lime juice, and bring to a gentle boil. Next, you reduce it until syrupy and golden. Finally, you jar it while still warm. The result is vibrant, fragrant, and bursting with sunshine.

Ingredients
● 700 g pineapple, peeled and sliced in rings
● 500 g sugar
● 1 piece star anise
● 50 g cognac
● juice of 1 lemon

Directions
Peel the pineapple and slice in rings.
Put the pineapple rings in a large pot with the cognac, the sugar and the star anise and leave overnight.
In the morning, put on low heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
After the 30 minutes, increase the heat slightly and simmer for about 10 minutes until the syrup has reached the desired consistency.
Just before turning off the heat, add the lemon juice.
Allow the spoon sweet to rest for a bit and then store in glass sterilized jars.
