Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Select and Prepare the Pineapple

    Choose a ripe pineapple that has a sweet aroma and firm, golden skin. Place the pineapple on a cutting board.

  2. 2

    Cut Off the Top and Bottom

    Using a sharp knife, slice off the top (crown) and bottom of the pineapple to create a flat surface.

  3. 3

    Remove the Skin

    Stand the pineapple upright and carefully slice downwards along the curve of the fruit to remove the outer skin, ensuring you remove all the 'eyes' (brown spots) as well.

  4. 4

    Core the Pineapple

    Once the skin is removed, cut the pineapple into quarters lengthwise. Use a knife to remove the tough core from each quarter.

  5. 5

    Cut into Desired Shapes

    Slice the pineapple into bite-sized pieces, wedges, or circles based on your preference.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Pineapple

    Arrange the cut pineapple on a serving platter.

  2. 7

    Add Garnish (Optional)

    If desired, add fresh mint leaves for garnish and serve lime wedges on the side for extra flavor.

  3. 8

    Serve Fresh

    Enjoy the fresh pineapple as a healthy snack or dessert.
