Slicing pineapples is an art that I’m sure you’ve tried your hand at before. The fruit is delicious, but stripping it of its skin and woody interior can be exhausting. It’s very easy with this guide.
1. Cut the top and bottom of the pineapple
There are many different ways to cut pineapples. However, a lot of pulp is often lost if you cut off too much at the edge or at the stalk. With our instructions you will get the most out of your pineapple and it is also quick and easy!
That’s how it’s done:
First cut off the crown of the pineapple. Be careful not to cut off too much, cutting two finger widths from the roots is sufficient.
Do the same for the end of the pineapple.
2. Halve the pineapple
Then halve your pineapple by cutting the stalk in half as precisely as possible. This will make it easier to remove in the next few steps.
3. Divide the pineapple into four pieces
Then quarter the pineapple, again in the middle of the stalk.
4. Remove wooden stalk
You can now easily and sparingly remove the wooden stalk from the quarters by cutting into the flesh so that the cut piece forms a triangle.
5. Cut the flesh of the pineapple
Now you can remove the flesh from the skin.
To do this, start as close as possible to the peel so as not to waste any fruit pulp.
Now fillet your pineapple. You can also cut this piece in half lengthwise for convenience.
Ready cut pineapple
You have now successfully removed the skin and stalk from the pineapple.
If you want to use them for a juice, smoothie or similar, you’re done now.
Cut pineapple into small pieces
For snacking, you can cut the pineapple into bite-sized pieces.
