Combine sugar, flour and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Gradually stir in pineapple juice and eggs. Cook over moderate heat, stirring until thickened. Add lemon juice. Cool to room temperature. Bring water, 2 teaspoons salt and oil to a boil. Add Acini de Pepe. Mix lightly, but thoroughly. Refrigerate overnight in tight container. Add remaining ingredients. Mix thoroughly. Refrigerate in airtight container. Will keep a week and can be frozen; however texture may be altered.

What is ancini de pepe? Is it in a package or that you can only buy in certain States. What are the ingredients? and maybe I can duplicate it here in Canada. Thank you (12/29/2004)
