Pineapple Core Reduction

[Steve Petrone]

Chop a fresh pineapple core to small pea size.
1 pat butter, a drizzle of honey and, apple juice to cover the chopped core.

Simmer to reduce.
Unbelievable flavor will remain.
The chopped core will be a nice addition to yogurt.

You actually eat the core? Does it soften with cooking?

Regards,
Chris

If you cook it enough...the core is very edible.
The intensity of the flavor will bowl you over. Chris it is almost like eating candy. The purpose is to obtain that magic licquid-the bonus is the remaining fruit.

Steve,

What a great idea and a wonderful way to use something we normally just throw away. Thanks,

Ray

I find this very odd... I just chew on the core. It is super tasty and easy to chew up. Maybe I'm the oddball, but heck If I can ever stop myself from just eating it as I go I'll try this out.

Josh, I have chewed on them before...after cooking they do become quite good.
