Cheap and Seasonal Fruit in Spring: Enjoy Pineapples for Just 20 Yuan!
Every April and May, pineapples are piled up in front of fruit shops, forming huge mountains, with a sign indicating prices of ten yuan for two large pineapples and ten yuan for three small ones, and they also offer free peeling service. I would occasionally buy one or two for this reason. Since I live with few family members, I usually eat one myself and give the other to someone, and if I feel like it, I'll buy one back to make pineapple fried rice, which is also delicious. This season, pineapples are in abundance, with high water content and sugar content, and the prices are also cheap, so it's good to eat some.
Pineapple is sweet and sour, crisp and juicy, containing a large amount of fructose, vitamin C, and proteinase that can effectively decompose proteins in food, which has the effects of digestion, beautification and slimming. Beautiful women can eat more pineapple this season for beauty, slimming and hydration. The remaining money for face masks is also wasted, considering the high price of luxury masks, it’s a pity to use them. Instead, buying two pineapples to eat is more economical.
Putting pineapple in salt water can decompose a part of organic acid in it, making the pineapple taste sweeter. Therefore, putting pineapple in salt water not only disinfects it but also makes it taste better. Some people say that pineapple is still a little sour and can't accept it. I'll teach you a good way. Let’s make mango and pineapple juice. It tastes sweet and doesn’t have any sourness. People who are afraid of sourness can easily accept it. Mango and pineapple juice is perfect for drinking before and after meals, helping to cleanse the intestines and aid digestion. It can also be used for beauty and skin care. It’s easy to make, and the juicer can handle it easily.
Mango and Pineapple Juice
Ingredients: 2 mangoes, 1/2 pineapple, 200ml purified water, 2 tablespoons of honey, a pinch of salt
Procedure: 1Choose mangoes with slightly wrinkled skin, which are more sweet. Choose pineapple with a slightly yellowish color and fresh leaves, which have high water content and sugar content, and are not too ripe. Fruits are usually peeled by the fruit shop. In special circumstances, buying them back and peeling them by myself is okay. Use a fruit knife to easily cut it.
2Cut the peeled pineapple into small pieces, add a little salt to the purified water and let it soak for a while, to remove the sourness at the same time, making the pineapple taste sweeter.
3Peel the mangoes and cut them into small pieces. I like to buy mangoes with slightly wrinkled skin, which indicates they are ripe and can be eaten immediately. Otherwise, buy those that are a little harder and let them stand for a few days.
4Put mango chunks and pineapple pieces into the juicer, add 200ml purified water and 2 tablespoons of honey.
5Run the juicer for 30 seconds to make a rich and delicious mango and pineapple juice. It tastes sweet and silky, completely without sourness.
Warm tips:
Mango and pineapple together make juice, their colors are similar and their flavors complement each other. Mango is a hot fruit, and pineapple is a cold fruit. Eating them together can reduce the stimulation to the intestines and stomach. However, mangoes and pineapples are also allergic fruits, so you need to choose them based on your individual situation. Pineapple should not be eaten on an empty stomach, as it is not good for the stomach.
