Pineapples are known as fresh fruit because they are rich in water content. On the other hand, this fruit is also liked because it has many benefits for the body. Reporting from health.clevelandclinic.org, pineapple is high in vitamins and minerals to help fight inflammation, improve digestion, lose weight, and so on.
Pineapples are also easy to find in traditional markets, fruit shops or supermarkets. After bringing pineapple home, sometimes many people are confused about how to detect the ripeness of the fruit flesh. If you make a mistake, the pineapple you consume might still be sour and have a hard texture, you know.
One of the easiest tricks is to observe the color of the skin. If there is more yellow than green on the skin, usually the pineapple is ripe. On the other hand, the celebrity chef known as Vindy Lee explained that you can actually detect whether a pineapple is ripe by inhaling its smell.
Vindy Lee also shares tricks to make cutting pineapple easier. First, cut and set aside the top and tail of the pineapple using a knife. Then split the pineapple in the middle, so that it becomes two parts. After that, lay the pineapple pieces face down on a cutting board. Then, cut the pineapple into pieces following the skin pattern. Vindy Lee calls these pineapple pieces cross-cut.
