Method
Preparation
- 1
Cutting the Pineapple
Start by placing the pineapple upright on a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to slice off the top and the bottom of the pineapple, creating a stable base. Stand the pineapple upright and carefully slice down the sides to remove the skin, making sure to remove any 'eyes' (the brown spots).

Halving the Pineapple
Once the pineapple is skinned, cut it in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scoop out the core from each half, if desired. You can save the core for juicing or smoothies.

Garnishing
If you'd like to add a refreshing touch, finely chop mint leaves and sprinkle them over the pineapple halves. You can also cut the lime in half and squeeze some juice over the pineapple for extra flavor.
