Gather all necessary tools and ingredients:

  • One ripe pineapple
  • A sharp knife
  • A cutting board
  • A bowl for collecting scraps

Step 1: Wash the pineapple

Before you begin, make sure to wash the pineapple thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or residue that may be present on the skin.

Step 2: Remove the top and bottom of the pineapple

Place the pineapple on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to slice off the top and bottom of the fruit. This will create a stable base on which to work.

Step 3: Stand the pineapple upright

Position the pineapple upright on the cutting board, using the flat, newly-cut bottom as a base. Hold it firmly with one hand to prevent it from rolling or slipping while you slice.

Step 4: Slice off the skin

Starting from the top of the pineapple, carefully cut downward to remove the skin in long vertical strips. Follow the fruit’s natural curve and work your way around until all the skin has been removed.

Step 5: Remove any remaining ‘eyes’

After removing the skin, you may notice small brown spots scattered around the pineapple, known as ‘eyes.’ To remove them, simply make shallow diagonal cuts along the spiral rows of the pineapple until all the eyes are gone.

Step 6: Slice the pineapple

Now that your pineapple is fully peeled, it’s time to slice it into your desired shape. Lay the pineapple on its side and cut it crosswise into rings of about half an inch thick. To create chunks, lay the rings flat and cut them into bite-sized pieces.

Step 7: Enjoy your freshly cut pineapple!

Your beautifully sliced pineapple is ready to be enjoyed! Serve it as a refreshing snack, add it to fruit salads, or use it in your favorite recipes. The possibilities are endless!

Now that you know how to properly peel and slice a pineapple, you can enjoy this delicious fruit whenever you like. Impress your friends and family with your pineapple preparation skills, and savor the fresh taste of this tropical delight.
