Smell that? It’s the heady tropical scent of a freshly cut pineapple. Bake them into cakes, char them for a beautiful caramel flavour, or turn them into ice-cold desserts for summer. If it’s savoury pineapple recipes you’re seeking, pineapple and pork is your friend – try the fresh fruit in a classic sweet and sour pork, barbecued on skewers, or served with soy-glazed pork.
