Cutting pineapple is not a difficult thing to do. But cutting it the CORRECT way, that showcases the fruit in an appealing presentation is another matter. And I have noticed over the years that many people do know this technique but there are many people who avoid cutting fruit themselves such as pineapple, mango, etc.
I always cut all my fruits and veggies in order to safe money and reduce unneeded preservatives (chemicals) in my food.
Watch this quick video-tour on how to cut pineapple into boats, which is a cute and fun way to eat it. These pineapple boats are a wonderful display for fruit platters, Charcuterie boards or for fruit salads.
Why You Should Cut Pineapple Yourself?
To avoid preservatives. All fruit salads in a store have chemicals added to extend the shelf life.
Safe money.
Use up the skin and rind(core) for other recipes such as as pineapple kombucha or a Mexican fermented drink called pineapple tepache. By the way pineapple rind (core) is edible, did you know that?
By cutting pineapple or other fruits yourself reduces the chance of salmonella poison.
Opportunity to have a hands on experience with your kids.
Hopefully, this has convinced you to cut your own fresh whole pineapple! Enjoy and have fun!
