It’s been awhile since my last post for Bake Along CNY bake.
But
I’ve been really busy …

INGREDIENTS
Pineapple
Fillings
(Home
cooked learn from a home base baking teacher)
5
ripe pineapples (mixed honey pineapples with normal Malaysia pineapple to have
a sweet and sour texture)
5
cloves
3
sticks cinnamon
180g-200g
rock sugar
Methods:
1.Remove skin and black eyes from pineapples
2.Grate pineapple and throw away the core
3.Add cinnamon sticks and cloves into the grated pineapple.
4.Cook the grated pineapple over small fire and
leave it alone to cook for 45mins.
5.Add sugar gradually and stir until the sugar is
melted into the paste.
6.Turn off the heat. Remove cinnamon sticks and cloves. Let the jam cooled down before storing.
Tips
from teacher:
1.If use Sarawak pineapple, no sugar is required.
2.Do not use the pineapple immediately after
cooked. It has to store in room
temperature in a tight container for at least 2 weeks before use. If have plan to keep longer, can put in the
fridge for as long as 6 months after 3 months of storing in room temperature.
3.If doing open tarts, never egg brush pineapple
paste as this will make the paste turn harder.
4.Raw sugar will cause the colour of the
pineapple paste to turn darker. Use rock
sugar instead.
