Candied Pineapple Recipe
What makes my candied pineapple different from non-candied pineapple is that the juice is extra sweet and the outside of the pineapple has an irresistible glossy shine.

Instructions
In a large, heavy pot, bring water and sugar to a boil.
Add pineapple rings.
Let the mixture boil for about 5-10 minutes. Be sure that all of the pineapple rings are under water.
Reduce the heat to medium and let it continue cooking for about 30 minutes. The liquid will thicken and become a syrup.
Remove from heat but let the pineapple remain in the pot as they cool for about 10 minutes.
Remove to a sheet of parchment paper to cool completely.
The syrup remaining in the pan can be saved and used in other dishes.
