CONNIE KAYE'S KITCHEN – Recipes and ramblings from Chiefs country

I didn’t learn this little trick until a few years ago, so if you’re way ahead of me, apologies.  A friend, Alyson (an awesome Occupational Therapy instructor), told me to twist, yes TWIST off the top of the pineapple.  (I had always chopped it off with a knife).  Like this:

One  you have removed the top, show your pineapple how to do a headstand, and ask that it remains that way for an hour or so, like this:

Turns out this allows all of the juices that have been sitting at the bottom redistribute, thus making the whole shebang tastier!  Much, much cheaper than buying already cut-up pineapple, and much better!

Enjoy!
