Pineapple is an ultra sweet tropical fruit that, like mango, has versatile uses in drinks, sweet dessert, and savory meals. Pineapple is featured in many summertime frozen cocktails, red wine sangrias, light cream desserts, cakes, spicy chutneys, and more.
It is also popularly enjoyed as a dried fruit. Sweetened dried pineapple is cut into rings. Dried pineapple rings maintain the sweet fresh flavors of ripe pineapple, and their extremely high sugar content prevents spoiling. The long shelf life and high energy content make it ideal in trail mix and energy bars. Popular mixes include nuts, chocolate, and other dried fruits like apricot and cranberry.
Cooking with pineapple is easy. Use sweetened dried pineapple in marinades and glazes for salmon or chicken. It complements flavors like paprika, ginger, chili, jalapeno, and coconut. Many sweet/spicy salsas and chutneys are enhanced with dried pineapple rings. Alternatively, it can be diced up and baked into sweet breads, muffins, and cookies.
These dried pineapples were grown and prepared in Thailand. Other regions in which pineapple is a popular ingredient include Central and South America, and India.
