Pineapple Cowboy Candy (Print Version)
Ingredients:
01 -
3 cups of diced fresh pineapple.
02 -
1 cup of thinly sliced jalapeño peppers.
03 -
1 cup of apple cider vinegar.
04 -
2 cups of granulated sugar.
05 -
2 tablespoons of lemon juice.
06 -
1 teaspoon of mustard seeds.
07 -
1/2 teaspoon of turmeric powder.
08 -
1 tablespoon of grated ginger.
09 -
2 cloves of finely chopped garlic.
Instructions:
01 -
Get a big saucepan and toss in the apple cider vinegar, granulated sugar, lemon juice, mustard seeds, turmeric powder, grated ginger, and chopped garlic. Let it come to a nice boil, then turn down the heat and let it simmer until the sugar's all melted in.
02 -
Now, toss in the diced pineapple and those jalapeño slices into the saucepan. Let everything simmer away over a medium flame until the pineapple's soft and the liquid's turned all syrupy. It'll take about 20 minutes or so.
03 -
While that's cooking, get your jars and lids sterilized by dunking them in boiling water for at least 5 minutes.
04 -
Once your pineapple mix is ready, carefully spoon it into your sterilized jars, making sure to leave a bit of space at the top. Wipe the jar rims clean, pop on the lids, and then give them a nice hot water bath for about 10 minutes.
05 -
Once they're out of the bath, let the jars cool down completely. Before you stash them away in a cool, dark spot, double-check those seals.
