Slice off the top Place the pineapple on its side on a cutting board. With a sharp chef's knife, slice off the top green crown and about a half inch of the top of the pineapple. Elise Bauer Elise Bauer Stand the pineapple upright on the cutting board. Cut away the outer peel Use a sharp knife to carefully cut away the outer peel, from top to bottom, following the contours of the pineapple. Elise Bauer Elise Bauer Do not cut so deep as to cut away the eyes. The outer edge of the pineapple has the sweetest flesh, so you want to retain that if you can. Cut off the bottom half inch or so of the pineapple. Elise Bauer Make diagonal cuts to carve out the pineapple eyes Now you have a pineapple dotted with eyes which must be removed. You can use a small paring knife to carefully carve out each one, but there is an easier way. Elise Bauer Notice that the eyes all line up on a diagonal! Make a diagonal cut across the side of the pineapple, like a V-shaped trench, and more easily cut out all of the eyes that are on that diagonal. Elise Bauer Elise Bauer Continue to work your way around the pineapple. You do waste a little bit of good pineapple this way, but not much, and it is a lot faster than trying to carefully cut out each eye. Make the final cuts Now the pineapple is ready to cut further. There are several ways to make the final cuts of the pineapple, depending how you are serving it. If you want rounds, just lay the pineapple on its side and cut it into 3/4 inch rounds. For rings, cut out the tough core. Elise Bauer Elise Bauer When we were kids we preferred to keep the core in. We liked to spear the core in a solid pineapple round with our fork, and then hold up the pineapple round to eat the ripe edges. If you just want chunks, cut the pineapple lengthwise into quarters. Elise Bauer Cut out the tough core, then cut each quarter lengthwise again. Then cut crosswise into chunks. Elise Bauer Elise Bauer
