Thank you for showing how to pick a perfect pineapple, it is very useful

Excellent advice. Thanks very much!

needed this in my life, thank you

Thank you for the best and simplest method for choosing a store-bought pineapple! Have struggled with this for years! Struggle no more!

great tips! common sense but very effective

I enjoyed your video thank you for these important steps

Another great demo!

I learn a lot so i will try all of your suggestions ❤❤❤❤

I agree with everything you said about choosing a pineapple except you CAN buy a more green pineapple, take it home and give it a few days to ripen. This is my very much preferred way to buy as I can cut it when it's at the peak of ripeness. It's a beautiful thing.

I prefer to buy mine as ripe as I can find, like he said, and then... this is the important part... I set the pineapple on the counter UPSIDE DOWN! The leaves go on the countertop and the "bottom" is sticking up in the air. Sometimes I'll even put the leaves into an empty glass Adams Natural Peanut Butter jar with a few chop sticks to stabilize it if the pineapple is a bit crooked or wobbly. Being upside down gives the pineapple a chance to finish ripening without the bottom getting all moldy. It also allows all the sugars that are usually in the bottom to get more evenly distributed throughout the pineapple. I've ripen many a pineapple to golden perfection on my countertop! Once you try it, you'll never go back!

ABSOLUTELY BS ! Pineapple is a fruit (unlike most other fruit) that DOES NOT RIPEN AFTER IT IS TWISTED OFF THE PLANT ! It’s as ripe as it will get when harvested, and starts to ROT slowly thereafter. After selecting a ripe enough pineapple in a market, take it home and cut it up immediately and place in closed container in refrigerator. I am a former Del Monte Hawaii pineapple plantation supervisor… 🤙

Thank you for sharing

Another helpful video, thank you and keep up the great work! I'm going to try that!

WOW THANKS😊

Thanks!!! My mom will be proud of me next time I buy a pineapple!!!! Nice watch by the way!!!

Great info, thank you very much!

All the waste, peelings and parts with seeds you place in a pot, add as much water as you want, as much sugar as you like and boil it for about 1/2 hour. Let it cool to room temperature, add ice to a glass, top it with the boiled juice and drink. Super refreshing and delicious. No waste.

Great video ... also watched how to pick a tomato. Eat a lot of pineapple, only difference with my style is that I twist off the leaves. Like your style, posted you on my FB. Keep posting good info.

Very helpful video as is the watermelon selection video. There is another way to slice pineapple (and grow one) that I learned from a class in the open courtyard at what used to be the Hawaiian Regent Hotel, now the Waikiki Beach Marriot Resort and Spa: For growing the top, first twist off the top instead of cutting it. Then pull off the lower leaves until you see root buds. Let it sit on top of a small glass with just the point in the water. Sprout when it has roots and plant in appropriate soil. To slice, cut off the bottom, then cut the pineapple in quarters from the top down. Slice the core out of each quarter, then make slices within the shell. Then cut the good fruit away from the shell. You can leave them in the quarters, pushing each slice out alternately and serve that way, or for chunks, cut each quarter in half lengthwise then do the same. Seems to be more efficient and safer this way. (From a photo taken from the 20th floor down at the pool, we later designed our pool after that one with built in planters and waterfall on a smaller scale for our former home).

Hi I enjoy watching your video I’m going to use your tips for buying pineapple because it’s my favorite fruit bye.

I cut the flesh off the trimmings to use in a teriyaki marinade. Fresh pineapple makes the marinade much more powerful than canned pineapple juice. Marinade the meat (beef, pork, or chicken) only an hour or two or the meat will begin to break down (dissolve if you will.) I learned this the hard way

I love your very informative videos

This is the first summer that we are enjoying watermelons thanks to your tips. Worked like a charm.

I twist the top off then cut into quarter sections which are cut against the skin to form slices

The skin makes a wonderful drink

. Thankyou I was wondering on how to pick and cut pineapple I usually bought the dollar e chunks in a can but they have discontinued them .AND THE pineapple is a staple so now how would I can pineapple chunks

I was raised in the Rio Grande Valley and stumbled on your watermelon video then this one. The melon one, i knew all BUT the belly button. That was awesome tip. But we visited the Dole plantation in Hawaii and they said the same tips you did and all i could remember was the leaf pull. Follower of your awesome content now!

That is how it is sold but I hate the green pineapples, at least half should be golden brown. Fully ripened fresh to eat are the best.

Welcome to Taiwan where the pineapples are the best . Golden yellow with sweet smell . In the high season they are very cheap in the price.😊😊😊

Cool!!!! Thanks!!! But I bought one of those really really green ones you showed us. How long does it take to ripen? Are there ways to make it ripen faster, or should I just toss it in the trash as a learing experience?

@jamescenzon6856

It will probably depend on the variety but in Cavite, Philippines, we ate the green ones fresh from the plant and they were sweet. Our farmer friend told us that the yellow one is already overripe but still edible. They don’t sell those as they become squishy during transport.

I don't throw out the core, I would get them out, like what you did in the video, and just eat them myself. For the skin, I would use my chopper, and chop them into smaller pieces (minced them) and using it as a fertilizer in my garden👍

I buy pineapple by the volume from farms of Tagaytay, Philippines. My experiwnce is that when i want a very flavorfu pineapple i choose the golden color or really ripe. It has less sugar taste but very rich in flavor. And when i like to have very sweet taste pineapple i pick up the green colored pineapple with very little yellow color or none at all. Dole Company grow pineapple in Philippines on a Lease Terms.

I place an under ripe pineapple in a brown paper bag and seal closed with an apple. The pineapple ripens in about 1.5 weeks. I also plant the tops and grow really sweet pineapple in my yard.

Guys never throw out your pineapple skins and cores yet! Throw them into a pot add water to keep them submerged and boil away. When water is almost reduced to half drain it and drink this water, everyday. Store leftover water in refrigerator to max 3 days only. This water is so rich in vitamins and has many health benefits - google it! Have been doing this for years. Love your videos very informative!

Question: I often choose pineapples that are green because I want them to ripen up since I have a pineapple in fridge. The heat is in the air in CA so after 3 days or so the pineapple goes into the fridge. Is this all ok?

@FoodChainTV

10 ай бұрын

I am not sure that I understand your question. But I will tell you that your fridge will do 2 things to the pineapple: 1) It will slow it down from spoiling, and 2) It will dehydrate it.

@FoodChainTV Thank you for your reply. Now, I'm not sure if I understand my question! It's kind of like not understanding your own handwriting. It seemed at the time it made sense (maybe 3 weeks ago). Anyway, I like 🍍s & I have noticed after 4 days or so being in frig. it does dehydrate it, but it's better than allowing it to overripen in heat. I enjoy your channel.

Nice tips. I usually cut off the top, then cut the pineapple in 4 sections with the skin still on. Next, I cut the core on each section to make a flat top. Then, do a larger V cut in order to leave the skin intact on each section but separated from the pineapple. Last, I turn the section over with the skin side on the cutting board & proceed to cut the pieces/wedges down the length of the section... then move the entire section with the skin to a plate to serve. Just be sure you don't have more than 4 people!

Or leave it in the shells for pineapple boats, put toothpicks in a few pieces like an oars... I also leave the top on and split it in the four sections along with the whole pineapple... really cute on a platter!
