Cook ripe pears in very little water until soft. Run pear mix through food mill, will look like applesauce.

Place pulp into large kettle. For every gallon of pulp add:

6 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. cinnamon

Being very careful not to burn, cook pulp until boiling and boil until thick enough to spread. Use a cold plate to determine if thick enough. Process in jars.
