HOW TO MAKE DRIED PINEAPPLE FLOWERS
Here are the promised step-by-step instructions on how to make those pretty and edible dried pineapple flowers. You can use them to decorate your cakes or cupcakes or just eat them as a snack. They are delicious and better for you than those fruit candies you get from the stores. And guess what? These dried pineapple flowers do taste like candies!
I first saw these oh…must have been a couple of years ago, in Martha Stewart’s Cupcakes Book. Oh…I didn’t buy it, I just flipped through it at Barnes and Noble’s. And since I have a photographic memory, I was able to recreate them at home, without having to buy the book!
Okay, I really just went on her website to find the instructions when I came home. For some reason the original recipe is no longer there today, but I was able to find this page on MarthaStewart.com to show you that it was there at one point.
In the recipe, she mentioned that after you peel the pineapple, you then need to “gouge” each of the pineapple eyes with a small melon baller or the tip of a paring knife. I can tell you that this instruction has been repeated by many, many other sites.
Seriously, people? Martha? Please, whatever you do, don’t do this! Don’t listen to Martha! Oh…don’t worry, she won’t be mad at me for saying that. Martha and I know each other very well. I mean, Martha and I are old friends. I mean, I’ve been obsessed with Martha. I mean, I’ve been a faithful follower since I was in high school.
I believe she would appreciate an improvement to her recipe. She is a pretty cool person. Have you seen her roasting a turkey? I mean, Justin Bieber? The woman is not only a genius in the kitchen, she is obviously also a comedic genius! Y’all have to watch the video!
Anyway, don’t spend precious time gouging those pineapple eyes one by one! There’s a much easier way to get rid of the eyes. Plus, I feel that gouging the eyes, thus making all those little holes on the pineapple, just ruined the overall look of the final product. You want these flowers to have uniform “petals”. I think I have a better way of making these dried pineapple flowers.
I first wrote about these pineapple flowers in my older blog The Novice Gardener, but I didn’t provide step-by-step photo instructions. So, here they are:
