Hawaiian Pineapple Boats Make A Stylish, Quick Dessert
(DM (-Fresh pineapple from Hawaii
is available year-round and always
adds a special touch to any m eal.
Here’s an Island dessert that’s excit­
ing, colorful-and so quick and easy
to prepare.
The delightful tangy-sw eet flavor
of Hawaiian fresh pineapple is even
more delicious when the fruit is mar­
inated in a blend of brown sugar and
rum. then broiled and topped with a
snowy "Cheese Crème” sauce.
"Hawaiian Pineapple Boats” make
a stylish p resentation at a brunch,
luncheon or dinner party. Perfect for
the family too, when you want to add
a festive ending to an everyday meal.

H ow to P ick the P erfect Pineapple
There are a lot of myths about picking out a fresh pineapple. It's really very
easy. Just remember that pineapple from Hawaii is always ripe and ready to
eat. Here are a few dos and don’ts that will help you select your own perfect
pineapple.
D O N 'T worry about shell color. The shell color of a sun-ripe pineapple
from Hawaii may range from green to golden. Optimum ripeness is deter­
mined by field testing for sw eetness-not by shell color. D ON’T thump the
pineapple or pull leaves from the crown. These old wives tales are not an
indication of ripeness. DO look for a bright, fresh crown and plump firm fruit
and avoid pineapples with large brown spots or bruises. DO refrigerate your
pineapple if you do not plan to use it immediately after purchase. Unlike most
fruit, pineapple will not ripen once it has been picked, since it has no starch
reserve to convert to sugar once it is harvested.
