Nutritive value of Pineapples Fruit Rings – Pineapples to Heal Protection against the summer Traditional Pineapple Dishes Oriental Pineapple Rice Hawaiian Salad Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction My fascination with pineapples – Ananas comosus – started very early, especially because they were part and parcel of my childhood. Living in a tropical region means that you are going to have plenty of juicy tropical fruit to eat throughout the year, but pineapples were quite something else. Firstly you needed to get somebody to slice them, then you diced them, and then you either juiced the rich succulent pulp inside, or just ate them raw without juicing. When I was about 6 years old, an aunt who was living in the Philippines at that time, send me and my brother beautifully embroidered dresses made out of pineapple leaf fiber. These were a barong tagalog (Baro, for short and not Barong) for him and a Baro’t Saya for me. Apart from that we were often sent beautiful pineapple fiber –Pina- clothes, which were so durable that they lasted me until I went to University and even after that. I liked these shirts very much, because of their very interesting history. According to a story I had heard, the Philippines were a distant colony of Spain. So the conquerors had to be different, had not they. They put out an edict. Only pure blood Spaniards could tuck in their shirts in their trousers. The conquered natives had to wear their shirts outside as a symbol of slavery. But the Philippinos were, as any brave race, very ingenuous. All these shirts were embroidered so beautifully that they became glorious works of art. So the Spaniards could have their unadorned tucked in shirts, but the natives wore their baros proudly. Alas, nearly 3 decades down the line, those embroidered Baros have disappeared from the Filipino markets. So sad to see a proud tradition die out.

This enchanting, juicy history takes us from the pineapple's origins in the Amazon rainforests to its first tasting by Columbus in Guadeloupe and its starring role on the royal dinner tables of Europe. In the eighteenth-century this spectacular fruit reigned supreme: despite the fact that, at first, to cultivate just one cost the same as a new coach, every great house soon boasted its own steaming pits filled with hundreds upon hundreds of pineapple plants. As the Prada handbag of its day, a real-life, homegrown pineapple was a powerful status symbol, so much so that at first, it was extremely unusual actually to eat the fruit. The image appeared on gateposts, on teapots, furniture and wallpaper. A new phase opened when growers in the Caribbean began supplying pineapples in the 1840s and later the first canning factory was built in Hawaii. As the story rolls on, through the heyday of pineapple chunks and cocktails, right up to the fashions of today,it touches on pineapples and sex, pineapples and empire, pineapples in art. Why is the pineapple so special? In one surprising sense it is indeed ideal. Made up of hundreds of separate fruitlets, its spirals embody the gradations of the Golden Mean - it is mathematically perfect. But it is more than that - for years a focus of traveller's tales, it is a treasure of sight and scent and taste. Packed with fascinating illustrations, this delicious book sees Fran Beauman explore the life and lore of the king of fruits: scholarly, witty and fun, it is a true hamper of delights.

Poet Charles Lamb described the pineapple as “too ravishing for moral taste . . . like lovers’ kisses she bites—she is a pleasure bordering on pain, from fierceness and insanity of her relish.” From the moment Christopher Columbus discovered it on a Caribbean island in 1493, the pineapple has seduced the world, becoming an object of passion and desire. Beloved by George Washington, a favorite of kings and aristocrats, the pineapple quickly achieved an elite status among fruits that it retains today. Kaori O’Connor tells the story of this culinary romance in Pineapple, an intriguing history of this luscious fruit. O’Connor follows the pineapple across time and cultures, exploring how it was first transported to Europe, where it could only be grown at great expense in hothouses. The pineapple was the ultimate status symbol, she reveals—London society hostesses would even pay extravagantly to rent a pineapple for a single evening to be the centerpiece of a party. O’Connor explains that the fruit remained a seasonal luxury for the rich until developments in shipping and refrigeration allowed it to be brought to the major markets in Europe and America, and she illustrates how canning processes—and the discovery of the pineapple’s ideal home in Hawaii—have made it available and affordable throughout the year. Packed with vivid illustrations and irresistible recipes from around the world, Pineapple will have everyone falling in love with this juicy tropical fruit.
