スナックパイン

パイナップルとひと口に言ってもさまざまな種類があるのですが、今回ご紹介する「スナックパイン」はボゴールパインとも呼ばれ、台湾が発祥だと言われています。現在では沖縄県を中心に栽培されており、非常に希少価値の高い品種なんですよ!

スナックパインの重さは700g~1kgと、一般的なパイナップルに比べるとひとまわりほど小さく、果肉のすきまが大きいのが特徴です。また味の面では酸味が少なく、香りは強め。甘みがぎゅっと濃縮されているので、通常のパイナップルのすっぱさが苦手という人も、スナックパインであればおいしく食べれますよ!

It will need a few days to ripen in room temperature until the it becomes completely yellow before serving.  Best to serve cold.

Snack pineapples are small in size, averaging ten centimeters in diameter, and are cylindrical to oval in shape with short, dark green leaves forming a spikey crown. The flesh also contains a unique central core that is crisp, soft, and edible. Snack pineapples have a high sugar content mixed with low acidity creating a sweet, candy-like flavor.  Snack pineapples are best suited for raw applications as their sweet flavor is showcased when consumed fresh, out-of-hand. The bottom of the pineapple is commonly sliced, removed, and each small hexagonal node is torn off from the core to create bite-sized pieces.  Snack pineapples can also be sliced and tossed into green salads and fruit bowls, blended into smoothies, or used as a topping over cakes, ice cream, and other desserts.
