Cook's Notes

Prepping a Pineapple: Using a large serrated knife, slice off top and bottom of pineapple so it sits level on work surface. Working from top to bottom and following the fruit's curve, slice off skin; cut away remaining "eyes." Quarter fruit lengthwise; holding pieces upright, slice off and discard core. Cut each quarter lengthwise into three wedges.
