Mmm.. sweet and sour pineapples
Caramelizing them makes them tastier when cook in braising dishes, like with fish or tofu.
They're good eating just like that with plain rice too. I guess I like to eat simple things.
(No idea why I caramelized the pineapple cores too.)
Q: Where does the name pineapple come from?
A: The word first recorded in 1398, it was originally used to describes pine cones from conifer trees. When European explorers saw the tropical fruit (around 1664), they called them "pineapples" because they resembled what is now pine cones. Then in 1694, "pine cone" was first recorded to replace the original meaning of the term "pineapple".
Pineapple is a very good source of Vitamin C (94% DV in a one cup serving).
