I never knew you could eat the pineapple core!! I always thought it was kind of "woody' - like certain parts of broccoli or asparagus can be. Thanks, Berta - I ALWAYS learn something useful from your videos. To be honest, I've never purchased a whole fresh pineapple. I "cheat" & buy the pre-cut containers prepared by the produce department people at my market. But those are SUPER pricey. Now I just might get me a whole fresh one & dissect it myself. There's nothing like that taste either. The difference between fresh & canned pineapple is like NIGHT & DAY. One of the world's yummiest foods. Thanks again & have a great week! ❤️🥕❤️

You're welcome, Almost. I agree that the taste of a fresh pineapple can't be compared to anything else. I love knowing that the little I know and share is blessing you. I have always eaten the core of the pineapple 🍍but when I learned that it contained an anti-inflammatory enzyme called bromelain, I now eat it with joy because I know that I'm doing something good for my body! Thanks for your support and your comments, Almost. Have a joyful and peaceful day 🥰

I usually don't freeze the core but just eat it. 😁 Or, if you freeze it just throw it into your smoothie with the other pieces of pineapple. Remember: just use it with the other pieces. Hope that's not too vague, Carolyn. 🤔

Thanks Berta, for your response. Does the Pineapple have to be organic and USDA Certified

@bertajay

I am sure organic is better but I just buy what's on sale and pray before I eat it😊 (truly I do). Thanks for you comment, Carolyn.

Thanks Berta, the enzyme bromelain is really interesting. It makes that rough stinging feeling in your mouth after eating too much. I'm looking at using pineapple as a tenderising marinade before rinsing and slow cooking meat. From my quick research it degrades at temperatures higher than 40 °C so canned pineapple won't work. My guess is that freezing fresh pineapple should be fine for this purpose.

Hello dear Miss Berta 😇 I think of you often.... like yesterday when I was putting parchment paper in a pan and I remembered that you shared a comment from one of your viewers. You shared that parchment paper lays easier in a pan if you crumble it up first, then put it in the pan. Works like a charm!! 🤩 In this video how would you suggest using the pineapple core? In a smoothie? Thanks for sharing another super video ❣️

Thanks so much, Sara, for remembering the Viewers Voices tip. It's a simple one but it works wonderfully. The cores of a ripened pineapple is usually rather sweet so I usually just eat them after cutting; they could also be used in smoothies and fruit salads. I hope that helps you a little bit, Sara. 😊
