Sometimes it happens that only at home you can properly examine the goods from the store. This rule is especially relevant for impulse purchases.

If it so happens that for some reason you bought a still green pineapple, you should not get upset and reproach yourself for wasting money.

You can help this exotic fruit ripen right at home.

For this you will need, in addition to pineapple, an apple or banana, but in this case only 100% ripe fruits will do.

Place them together with an unripe pineapple in a paper bag, seal it and leave it at room temperature for a few days.

Don't forget to turn the tropical fruit over from time to time.

This must be done to avoid uneven ripening.

But you don’t need to put pineapple in the refrigerator – in the cold, the ripening process, on the contrary, slows down, so it makes sense to leave the fruit stored on the kitchen table.
