Wash, pare, and core pears. Slice before measuring. Run through food chopper, using the fine blade. Dice the pineapple fine. Combine with the pears and add lime rind and juice; add sugar. Cook over slow heat, stirring frequently. Cook for 20 minutes. Pack in sterilized jars and seal while hot.

If you are going to store this pear honey unrefrigerated, you should process the filled jars in a hot water bath canner for 10 minutes. Otherwise you risk food poisoning.

Wash pears. Remove cores. Grind pears in food chopper. Place in large cooking pan. Add sugar and pineapple and stir until sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil and cook until thick, about 20 minutes. Stir frequently.

This sounds really good, but can you give us ideas on storage. Do you put it in canning jars. How long does it keep? I'm assuming you refrigerate it? Thanks for your recipe and your help. (10/08/2009)
