Pineapple Corer

There is more than one way to skin a pineapple. I already showed you how to cut a pineapple into chunks. Now it's time to core a pineapple into rings! (Well, Hubby is going to demonstrate because I am a wimp when it comes to the pineapple corer.)

Cut an inch off the top of the pineapple.Then plunge the corer into the center of the fruit, and twist, twist, twist until the corer hits the bottom of the fruit.Pull the corer straight out of the fruit. The pineapple will sit on the corer in rings, just like inferior canned pineapple. Forget canned. Get the fresh stuff! It is so worth it!
The downside to using the corer is that you will get less edible fruit than by cutting the pineapple into chunks.
The core is left inside the hard shell of the pineapple. The core can be cut into little swizzle sticks for tropical drinks.Once the core is removed, the shell could make a bowl for fruit, a drink container, or even a dip container.

So what do you prefer? Pineapple chunks or pineapple rings?
