The pineapple jam is usually made by slowly reducing and caramelizing grated fresh pineapple that has been mixed with sugar and spices - usually cinnamon, star anise and cloves.
Pyrolysis also plays an important role in several cooking procedures, such as baking, frying, grilling, and caramelizing.
The sugar is soaked with rum and set alight, melting and caramelizing.
The sweetness is derived from caramelizing the milk sugars of the whey as it is made.
Through frying, one can sear or even carbonize the surface of foods while caramelizing sugars.
