[h=5]Pineapple Paste[/h](adapted from Old-School Soy Sauce | Manuela Zoninsein)
[h=5]Ingredients:[/h]12 oz. (weight) peeled, cored, diced pineapple (from 1 pineapple)
1 pound 4 ounces of peeled, seeded, diced winter melon (from about 2½ pounds winter melon wedges)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup maltose syrup

[h=5]Method:[/h]Place the pineapple in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until pureed, stopping and scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally, 18 to 20 pulses. Pour into a Dutch oven.
Place the winter melon in the food processor and pulse until very finely shredded, 20 to 22 pulses. Transfer to the Dutch oven.
Cook the combined mixture over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated and the winter melon begins turning translucent, about 20 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium, add the sugar, and cook until the mixture has thickened, about 8 minutes.
Stir in the maltose syrup and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is very thick, sticky, and uniformly light amber in color, 10 to 12 minutes.

Transfer mixture to a shallow bowl and refrigerate until cool. Divide into 1 Tsp each.
