Just bought a pineapple for the first time. Checked a few videos and posts on internet to see how I am supposed to cut it up, everyone said to throw the core away or use it in a smoothie at best. Even my mom said to throw it away.
Anyway, I tried to eat a small amount of it, and then ate the entire core. It’s pretty edible, feels like throwing out pizza crust.
Much more chewable than celeriac. Though I would label it as “Dental floss mandatory” type of food, but so is anything with poppy seeds.
So how do you use it? Do you eat it, throw it out, something else?
Pineapplecore sounds like what someone would name surfer rock if it came out today
Ska covers of SpongeBob songs.
Ska with a Ukulele instead of a trumpet.
Is that not chap-hop
Pineapple has an enzyme (bromelain iirc)that helps to tenderize meat.
The enzyme is in all parts of a pineapple not just the juice(not sure about the stems) so you could blend the core with the rinds and use to marinate some meats
I believe you need to rinse it off before cooking if you use the rind
Be careful with timing… pineapple juice will break that meat down into mush if you let it marinate too long.
It’ll also break you into mush. When you eat pineapple it eats you back.
Take it and sprinkle it in paprika. Next, cover it in tin foil. Bake it in the oven at 300 for 45 minutes. Once it is baked. Take it out and immediately freeze it over night.
The next day, blend your frozen baked pineapple stick into dust. after that you will want to sprinkle your dust on a baking tray and set it low in the oven at a low heat for about 5 hours. This should dehydrate it nicely. Funnel the dust into a jar and save it.
Next time you are having a pizza with friends, sprinkle some pineapple dust on the pizza before it goes in your oven. They won’t be able to identify what is making the pizza so delicious but they’ll absolutely love it.
It seems like a lot of work, but honestly it is the single greatest foodstuff that has ever passed these lips.
I genuinely thought this was going to end with like “and then shove it up your ass!” or something
I was expecting the undertaker throwing mankind
They won’t be able to identify what is making the pizza so delicious but they’ll absolutely love it.
…and then you tell them it’s pineapple, right? What an evil plan, I love it!
Or just let them believe you to be a pizza genius. Start to give them pizza hits as and when they need them. Sell pizza in small baggies by the ounce. Make your fortune. Buy a yacht. sail the seas. Become a pirate. Find some gold. Share it among your crew. Realise later it’s cursed. Track down every last coin but one. Find the last one with some chick. Kidnap her. End up fighting an old foe. Die an old but very satiated pirate.
If you’re blending it up into a powder anyway, wouldn’t it make more sense to add the paprika at the end? Does adding it before baking actually make a difference?
Hi don’t put hot things in the freezer or I slap you dadly
Just to add to this in the simplest way possible…
Hot things heat up cold things! This is not good for frozen food! Let it cool off, then freeze it.
Thanks for coming to my ted talk.
The next time you buy a pineapple, save the rind and make tepache with it. It’s a nice refreshing drink on its own. It’s also a great mixer for tequila and rum.
I eat it with the rest, nice crunchy texture. It does contain a higher concentration of bromelain; which is good for inflammationand reducing eye floaters. Bromelain is found in the rest of the pineapple and you only get reduction of eye floaters after a few months of daily use.
That eye floater bit sounds sketchy af
You are eating the core/bromelain, not putting it in your eye.
Yes I know, that’s why it’s so weird. In what way does that work?
If you suggested rubbing it in, at least the vector would be clear to me.
It’s there any paper in this, or is it purely anecdotal?
It breaks down the collagen that causes most eye floaters.
There was a 2019(?) study out of Taiwan, 3 months of daily use saw up to a 70% reduction.
I did try it myself and had a reduction, I didn’t follow the study’s dosages so my results weren’t mind-blowing. I will be doing another round at about the highest dosage with all enzymes included, fingers crossed.
Dogs love it and if you have to get your dog to stop eating its poop, give it some pineapple. It does something that will make their dookie repulsive and they will stop. But they usually eat their crap when the food they are eating isn’t meeting their needs. So maybe try different food.
The core?! They might swallow it whole and it get stuck.
If you have a dog so stupid it’s chokes on a pineapple core, well idk what to say but you should probably consider it a sign.
A sign for what??
A sign for time to chop the core before giving it to doggie
That would be mine dog. He attempts to eat everything like Bubba.
I eat it with the rest of the pineapple
