What are the best ways to cut a pineapple?

Start by slicing off the top and bottom, stand it upright, then cut off the skin in strips. Remove the eyes and core before slicing or cubing as desired.

How can I tell if a pineapple is ripe?

Look for a sweet aroma at the base, a slight give when squeezed, vibrant color, and leaves that pull out easily.

How should I store fresh pineapple?

Store whole pineapple at room temperature for up to two days. Once cut, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to a week.

Can pineapple be frozen?

Yes, cut pineapple into chunks, place on a baking sheet to freeze, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 6 months.

Is canned pineapple as good as fresh for cooking?

Canned pineapple works well for most recipes, though fresh offers a brighter flavor and firmer texture.

What dishes can I use pineapple in?

Pineapple is great in salsas, desserts, salads, marinades, stir-fries, and grilled dishes.

How do I prevent pineapple from becoming mushy in cooked dishes?

Add pineapple near the end of cooking to preserve texture, especially in stir-fries or baked dishes.

Does pineapple tenderize meat?

Yes, pineapple contains bromelain, which helps tenderize meats when used in marinades—avoid marinating too long or the meat may become mushy.

Are there substitutes for fresh pineapple in recipes?

Canned pineapple or frozen pineapple are good substitutes. Mango or papaya can also work in some recipes.

How can I reduce the acidity of pineapple for recipes?

Cooking pineapple or soaking it in a sugar syrup can mellow its acidity.

Why does my mouth feel tingly after eating pineapple?

Pineapple contains bromelain, an enzyme that can cause tingling or mild mouth irritation, which usually goes away quickly.

Can I use the pineapple core in recipes?

Yes, though tougher, it can be blended into smoothies or simmered in syrups and stocks for added flavor.

How do I grill pineapple?

Slice pineapple into rings or spears, brush lightly with oil or sugar, and grill until caramelized with nice char marks.

The pineapple I bought this time was truly disappointing. It wasn't sweet at all and had no pineapple flavor whatsoever. The top of the pineapple was moldy, and the flesh was still very hard. Extremely disappointing, don't buy it!

This pineapple was terrible. It was very green when it arrived, and it ripened slightly after three days, but the bottom of the stem started to mold. I had to cut it off quickly. The taste was very strange, so I had to throw the whole thing away. People who want to buy it should think twice!

The fresh produce I bought this time was of excellent quality! The fruits and vegetables were all very fresh; the apples were plump, the carrots were firm, and the cucumbers and tomatoes looked crisp and juicy, with no bruises or signs of spoilage. The packaging was careful, the items were clearly categorized, and they were well preserved during transport. Overall, the portions are generous, the quality is consistent, and it's more than enough for everyday cooking. I would definitely buy from them again!
