If you get an unripe pineapple, just do this! It’ll still taste great.

Bought a pineapple that looked a little too green, but I didn’t want to waste it. First thing I do is leave it out at room temp for a day or two. If it still smells bland at the base, I try the upside-down trick—sometimes it helps, sometimes not. Once it’s softened a bit, I cut off the top and bottom, then slice off the skin and eyes. If it’s still tart, grilling is my go-to. The heat brings out more flavor and makes it easier on the mouth. Sometimes I’ll sprinkle a little brown sugar before grilling or even bake the slices in the oven. If it’s still not sweet enough, a dusting of sugar on the chunks does the trick. Not the sweetest pineapple, but it’s definitely edible this way. #pineappletips #fruitprep #kitchentricks #Food #Cooking
