WOW! This was SO MUCH FUN!!! I wish I would've known about this method when I was a prep cook - it is so much faster, less messy, less waste, etc. I love to eat the freshest food possible, but sometimes opt out for the sake of convenience - have been looking at this pineapple on my counter for a week and knew I needed to use it or lose it and frankly paid too much to throw it away! Thx!!! Makes me wonder what other fruit & veggies I can get handy with - jicama, for one!

I'm glad you found it useful. As for jicama, I just peel it with a potato peeler and shred it with the coarse side of a cheese grater. Add orange sections, cilentro, a little vinegar, salt, and chili powder. Use as a salad or condiment. It is like a fresh chutney.

You mean salsa. Chutneys are by definition cooked.

Where'd you get your "definition"? ;-) See:
