Baby Pineapple

Baby Pineapple

Round, juicy pineapple with a sweet and sour taste. Baby pineapple has a finer and sweeter pulp, without woody fibers, compared to large fruits. The color of the peel can range from dark green to yellow with green stripes.

Due to changes in humidity during storage and transport in Europe, it is possible that airborne mold may appear on the bottom of the pineapple.

Usage

Pineapple is usually eaten fresh, as a morning or afternoon snack. It can be used in fruit salads, cocktails or smoothies. It can also be used to cook hot dishes, especially exotic ones. Various desserts, strudels and other pastries can also be prepared with pineapple.

It is also suitable for roasts of various types of meat, pizza, risotto or as a side dish with meat dishes. It can be fried, baked and grilled. When grilled, the sugar in it caramelizes, keeping its sour taste, which makes it a perfect side dish for roasts. Pineapple juice can be added to the marinade for meat for more tenderness.

Our tip: Grilled pineapple

Remove the pineapple peel and cut the core into equally thick slices. Remove the hard core of the pineapple. Dip the pineapple slices in sugar, then place them on the grill, on both sides, until they turn golden brown.

Enjoy!

Storage

Ripe pineapple should be eaten as soon as possible. Unripe pineapple can be left to ripen for up to two weeks. Store at a temperature of 10-15 ° C.
