My mom served this sweet little sauce as a warmed condiment for our ham every Easter. It's easy, unique and tasty! You can make it earlier, and re-heat it, but it's best right off the stove!

Steps:
- Whisk together the pineapple juice with cornstarch in a small saucepan over medium heat, and stir in the dry mustard powder, red currant jelly, raisins, and pineapple. (Lumps of jelly will dissolve as mixture heats.) Bring the sauce to a boil, stirring constantly, and simmer until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Keep raisins stirred into sauce as it cooks so they don't burn. Serve warm.

PINEAPPLE RAISIN SAUCE
Serve this with warm or cold ham slices. I tweaked several recipes to come up with this one. Make it a day ahead so the raisins can plump. Our family likes a subtle clove flavor, but add more cloves if you like it spicier.

PINEAPPLE-RAISIN SAUCE
The original of this recipe was meant to be served with glazed ham, but I've found the sauce to be a nice accompanyment for both pork & chicken! Four cups of fresh pineapple (diced medium) can be used instead of canned pineapple. If you want a somewhat less lumpy sauce, I'd suggest using crushed pineapple instead of the chunks.

PINEAPPLE RAISIN SAUCE
I made this for our Easter ham. I couldn't find a recipe that I liked that had pieces of pineapple in it, only the juice. I found this on a net search, after going through many pages, lol. I had to make a little change, adding cornstarch to thicken it. The amounts here I have doubled, so we could have sauce with our leftovers, but you can cut the recipe by half, if you prefer.
