When should you store pineapple upside down: a note for gourmets
02.06.2023 08:34
Pineapples are distinguished by their juiciness and very bright aroma.
This is why many gourmets adore this exotic fruit.
It would seem that the rules for storing pineapple are clear. You need to pack the fruit in a paper bag and put it in the vegetable compartment of the refrigerator.
But sometimes it makes sense to store pineapple at room temperature and upside down.
In what case is this storage method appropriate?
Pineapples sold in stores are not always ripe.
If you come across an unripe fruit, you shouldn’t put it in the refrigerator.
Place the pineapple on a plate and the dish itself on the countertop or windowsill.
Moreover, the exotic fruit should be placed "upside down". Thus, before "installation" the pineapple should be freed from the green top.
What does this storage method provide?
Starch is concentrated in the lower part of the plant. It is possible that over time this compound will become sugar.
For a more even distribution of the component, the pineapple should be turned over.
With this arrangement, the chances of quickly transforming an unripe, hard-fleshed fruit into a ripe, sweet, soft treat are very high.
