- 2 cups of sugar (or any sweetener of your choice)
- 1 cinnamon stick
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tbsp of butter *optional*
Instructions:
- Cut the pineapple into small pieces and finely chop or grind. Place the pineapple puree in a large pot and add the tepache, cinnamon stick and salt. Stir the mixture until combined.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- After 30 minutes, add the sugar and stir until it dissolves. If you’re using butter, add it now. Let the mixture simmer for another 30-40 minutes or until it reaches a jam-like consistency.
- Remove the cinnamon stick and pour the mixture into a sterilized jar. Let it cool and refrigerate.
Pro-tip: Use the jam as a glaze for pork or chicken, add it to a sauce for extra flavor, or even spread it on toast for a quick breakfast option.
