Step by Step

1
When you're at the supermarket or market, look for pineapples with a bright green crown and, above all, make sure that when you pull the leaves, they come off easily.
2
Avoid pineapples that have mushy or soft spots or yellow leaves.
3
Use your sense of smell - if the pineapple gives off a fruity aroma, it means it's good. On the other hand, if it emits a 'fermented' smell, it's already overripe. If it has no scent, it might not be ripe yet.
4
Another way to know if the pineapple is ripe is by pressing it lightly; if it releases a little juice, it's ready to eat!
