How-to Peel a Pineapple


Pineapples look intimidating with their tough outer shell and spiny skin. And that tough skin makes it hard to get to the juicy inside. To enjoy a fresh pineapple, however, all you have to do is follow these four steps.

1. Cut off the top and bottom of the pineapple.

2. Working carefully, cut the spiny rind off the sides, taking care to leave as much of the flesh behind as you can.

3. Using the end of a peeler, cut the "eyes" out of the pineapple flesh. The eyes are the dark spots.

4. Cut the pineapple in rings, then, using a paring knife, remove the core of each ring.
