Tomato Green Chile Pineapple Preserves image

Found this summery gem in the New Mexico State University Cooperative Extension Service Guide E-326 - Home Canned Sweet Spreads Made with Green Chile. http://aces.nmsu.edu/pubs/_e/E-326.pdf What a find for folks with tomatoes & peppers coming outta our ears! Will be adapting to our Mesilla Hybrid cayennes & brilliant yellow & orange cherry tomatoes that are producing like nothing we've ever seen to make a jam that will remind us of the sweetness & heat of summer. One use for this recipe is Recipe#388105 - Mmmmm, sounds sooo good when the weather is cold & wet!
