Handling fresh pineapple is tricky specially peeling off the eyes are difficult. So people prefer buying store bought tinned Pineapple. But the fresh pineapple taste & flavor is incomparable with the store bought one. It is much cheaper and healthy version. You can consume the fresh fruit with all its food value intact.

You will get information regarding peeling off  the eyes alongwith the flesh. In this process you loose lot of flesh along with the eyes which I do not like.

The other day I bought whole pineapple and used a trick to remove eyes with help of sharp round top of a peeler. It was great and hardly loose the flesh .

Here I am sharing the tricks to peel, removing eyes and chopping the pineapple.

Tools required:

  1. Sharp long Chef
  2. Vegetable peeler
  3. Chopping Board
  4. Bowl

Instructions:

Chop off the crown of the Pineapple. Cut thin Slice from the bottom of the pineapple. This will help stand the pineapple.

Wash the whole pineapple . Be careful, the body is little thorny. Wipe the water.

Keep the pineapple in standing position on the chopping board or on a flat surface.

Now slice the skin  off the sides going from top to bottom. Slice it as thin as possible otherwise the good flesh will go alongwith the skin. Be informed that the outer flesh is the sweetest part of the fruit, so save it.

Now take the peeler and with the sharp tip make small groove around the eyes . Refer picture. Remove the eyes one by one. Some juice may drain out while doing it. So do this in a vessel from where you can use the juice.

Once the eyes are removed cut the slice in round or long shape as per your requirement.  You can use the core too, it is harder but sweet and edible.

I do not peel the whole pineapple at one go. Keep the crown on. Cut the required quantity from bottom part and store the rest in fridge. Wrap the bottom cut part in cling foil and it remains fresh for week.

So happy eating fresh pineapple.
