1 1/2 c carrots, grated or matchstick-cut
1 1/2 c pears, peeled, cored , cut into tiny dice
1 3/4 cup finely chopped pineapple with any collected juice
3 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground cloves
4 c granulated sugar*
put all ingredients into a heavy bottomed pan, bring to a boil and allow to simmer rapidly until mixture resembles molten sugared lava and mixture reaches about 220 degrees F on a candy thermometer. took me about 20-30 minutes. place a small amount on a plate that has been in the freezer for a bit, put back in freezer for 1 minute. it should be firm and wrinkle some when you touch it.
ladle mixture into sterilized jars and process in water bath for 10 minutes. allow to cool completely on counter, checking to be sure all jars have sealed properly.
* original recipe called for 6 1/2 cups of sugar (4 seemed sweet enough to my taste) and pectin, which i opted not to use.
