what to do with pineapples

[mollykins]

i love pineapples, but other thanon their own, in sweet and sour sauces, fruit salad and on cocktial sticks with cheese and grapes there's nothing else to do with them. What recipes have you got?

[mccfluff]

stick it on your head

[mollykins]

thats basically spicy sweet and sour, i'm after something diferent and unusual that i probably havent had before.

[rowanwitch]

in middle to hot curries,

Sorbet especially blended with mango

fried in a mixture of golden syrup and butter this works with almost any fruit

candied or dried in cakes especially coconut cake

Just remeber don't put it in the fridge without double wrapping it it is a b****r for affecting the flavour of other foods
