CANNED PINEAPPLE

The pineapple can be peeled, cored, and cut up to 4 hours ahead and stored in the refrigerator covered with plastic wrap. The syrup can be made 1 day ahead and refrigerated, then reheated to boiling before adding the fruit.

Properly processed and sealed jars can be stored in a cool, dark place for up to 1 year. After opening, refrigerate and consume within 1 week. If any jar fails to seal (the lid doesn't make a popping sound or stays flexible), refrigerate immediately and use within 3 days.
