Pineapples always remind me of a nice warm weather with a tropical feel. It is such a great ingredient to cook with but definitely a hassle to buy. Buying a pineapple is hard not only because it is difficult to find out whether it is ripe but also because it is hard to cut. Hence the easiest way to get pineapple is in its canned form. Even though this isn’t a "fancy" ingredient, it is definitely very useful nevertheless. The preserved pineapples have a great sweetness to them that works great in desserts and salads.
