How to Choose
-
Choose pineapples with fresh, firm green leaves and skin that has turned golden yellow overall.
-
A sweet fragrance and heavy weight for its size are good signs.
-
Leaf-pulling is not a reliable ripeness test; instead look for golden color extending up toward the crown.
How to Store
-
Store at room temperature.
-
Storing upside down (crown down) helps redistribute sweetness evenly throughout the fruit.
-
Cut pineapple should be wrapped and refrigerated for 2-3 days.
-
Freezing is also possible.
