• P.S. I know it seems as if you are boiling this too many times, but pineapple is a hard fruit and this foams allot. It took me two pineapples to get 5 cups. You can use canned fruit instead of fresh just make sure it is not in sugar syrup and skip the 1 hour soaking time.

MINTED PINEAPPLE-LIME MARMALADE

Uncover, turn up the heat and boil vigorously until the mixture thickens and the juices become syrupy. Remove from heat, discard the bunch of mint, stir in the crème de menthe and the chopped mint leaves and pour into hot, sterilized jelly glasses. Cover with a thin layer of paraffin.
