A method that was past along from my grandmother, a very common way the asian fruit markets do. But one problem about this method is that the pineapple looses a lot of juice during the cutting process. Unless you are really into its look otherwise, I don't find it very practical. And about the Rubino Bros. Micheal claims as a executive chef but he has never attended any culinary school or professional training. I see these bros. as self promonters rather than anyting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17385036.post-42887752150188673352006-10-16T21:16:00.000-04:002006-10-16T21:16:00.000-04:00I will do my best to describe it- it is very simpl...I will do my best to describe it- it is very simple actually. 1. Cut the top and bottom off to make it level. 2. Stand the pineapple on it' level bottom and using a sharp knife, cut away the skin in small strips from the top to bottom. Try to cut the least amount, removing only the skin. 3. Once that is done, you should see a lot of circular, inedibal bits embeded in the yellow flesh. 4. Lie the pineapple down on your cutting board. If you look at these circular things, you will see that they naturally make a number of paths diagonally down the sides of the pineapple. 5. Simply cut the circular bits away, using a thin sharp knife (I like a boning knife) and angleing the cuts toward one another. If you step back and look at the pineapple, you will see the winding pattern. It takes some patience and practice. Once that is done, a nice way to serve it is to first cut it quarters down the center (the long way), then cut away the tough core. Then slice each quarter into slices and fan out on a platter. Another idea is to use it as a centerpiece and makes fruit kabobs with grapes, pieces of pineapple, etc, then stick them into the decorative whole pinapple, so the guests can serve themselves from it. In that case, it is good to keep the top of the pineapple and place it back on top for decoration.Sarah and Tiggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06295702100931782232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17385036.post-51955964424076176152006-10-16T04:11:00.000-04:002006-10-16T04:11:00.000-04:00Interesting-looking pineapple...
