How do you choose a pineapple at the grocery store?

First, choose a pineapple that is on the larger size. This will yield more fruit and less waste. Second, gently tug on the top leaves of the pineapple. If they pull out easily, then your pineapple is ripe. Pineapple should not be wrinkled, bruised, or soft at all. These are signs of an overripe or damaged pineapple.

Spice Level:

We love the hint of heat the jalapeño brings to this salsa. You can always omit the jalapeño if you are sensitive to spice, or even add more jalapeño if you want it extra spicy!
