When I’m at the grocery store, I often can’t resist buying whatever produce is on sale. I find this forces me to be a little more creative, using ingredients I might not normally use and trying to combine what I already have around (to avoid another grocery store run). When I picked up a whole pineapple on sale, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to do something savory or sweet with it – so I decided to cook a jam that could go either way. This jam is sweet, but not too sweet, and has an extra exotic flavor from the use of cardamom.
