Pineapple Rhubarb Jam: A Sweet and Tangy Delight
Ah, summer! That wonderful time of year when the garden is overflowing with fresh produce, and my biggest challenge is figuring out how to make use of it all.
Right now, it’s rhubarb season, and let me tell you, I have access to sooooo much free rhubarb. Friends, neighbors, and even my own little patch are all offering up this tart and tangy delight.
If you’re like me, you find it hard to let any of it go to waste. Over the years, I’ve tried countless recipes to keep up with the bounty, and today, I’m excited to share one of my favorites: Pineapple Rhubarb Jam.
I’ve already sung the praises of my classic rhubarb jam and the ever-popular strawberry rhubarb jam in previous posts.
But this Pineapple Rhubarb Jam is a game-changer. The combination of tart rhubarb and sweet, juicy pineapple creates a flavor explosion that’s perfect on toast, biscuits, or even as a glaze for meats. Plus, it’s incredibly easy to make, and you can enjoy it all year round.
One of the best things about this recipe is its flexibility. During the summer, I use fresh rhubarb straight from the garden. But come winter, when I’m craving a taste of summer, I simply pull out some frozen rhubarb from my freezer and grab a can of crushed pineapple from the pantry. It’s that simple!
And there you have it! Pineapple Rhubarb Jam that’s perfect for those summer mornings or a winter treat to remind you of sunnier days. The sweetness of the pineapple balances the tartness of the rhubarb beautifully, creating a jam that’s both unique and versatile.
Making the most out of a plentiful harvest doesn’t have to be complicated or time-consuming. This recipe is a testament to that. So, next time you find yourself with an abundance of rhubarb, give this Pineapple Rhubarb Jam a try. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you! Enjoy!
