My Favorite Fruit: Pineapple

Pineapple is not just a tasty delicacy for children and adults. It has many useful properties that lurk within it. Juicy fruit contains 86% water, 15 from sucrose. It has contained all the most valuable vitamins, such as B1, B2. In addition to the above components, the pineapple contains many useful chemical elements. The pulp of the fruit is rich with iron and potassium, which are necessary for qualitative work of the heart. But copper, zinc, calcium, manganese and iodine contribute to the overall strengthening and healing of the body. This plant is a storehouse of vivacity and health.

In addition, fresh fruit has a beautiful green leaves. If you gently pull one of them, he should easily separate from the stem. The green leaf of the pineapple will hold firmly, and rotten it will entail the tail of the fetus. You can also gently try to rotate the tail around, just not much (if the fruit is ripe, the tail easy to tear). If he sits tight then it is a green pineapple. How to correctly choose the fruit, ideally, can tell its pulp. If possible, it is better to ask the seller to make a small incision. The flesh of a ripe pineapple will have a rich Golden color. The unripe fruit its color will be pale.

If you bought all the fruit was underripe, it does not matter. Pineapple could be composted at home. Just keep it in a dry place at room temperature. Two to three days for ripening of the fruit will be enough, and then you could peel it easily with the stainless steel pineapple peeler. A ripe pineapple should be stored in the refrigerator. There is an opinion that in this case, the fruit will inevitably loses its useful and taste qualities, but it is not so, as you enjoy it with the fruit utensils. And the choice remains: when stored in other conditions the ripe fruit is simply worse. Therefore, it is best to put in store bought pineapple into a paper bag and place it in a compartment of the refrigerator designed for storage of fruit. The package needed to other products on the shelves of the Cabinet have not purchased the pineapple scent. Occasionally the fruit will need to flip, so he started to rot. Keep ripe fruit in the refrigerator no more than a week.
