How to cut a pineapple
Years ago, I had this boyfriend and we loved to have people over and entertain. Whether it was for a football game, pool time, Saturday night… You name it! He supplied the house, I supplied the kitchen duties. Sometimes it’s easier for me to keep busy instead of having to make polite chit chat.
Well, one day I get there and here is how this conversation went…
Boyfriend, “I bought you a pineapple!”
Me, “Okay. Why?”
Boyfriend, “To cut up to go with the other food.”
Me, “How?”
Boyfriend, “I don’t know. I was hoping you knew.”
So, I figured it out for him. Because that is what good girlfriends do, right? Please remind me why I’m still single…
Well, in case you needed a bit of help because it really can be quite intimidating (speaking from personal experience), I’m here to give you a step by step guide with pictures! And once you know how, you’ll never go back to the canned stuff!
Cut the top off the pineapple
Cut in half
Cut that half in half. You will then have four quarters.
With a longer thinner knife, cut around the rind as so…
It should easily come right out!
Now, cut that quarter down the middle…
Start slicing depending on the width you would like.
There you go! A LOT of fresh pineapple!
