Today, my mother showed mercy and bought a pineapple that I really like to eat. I was able to discover for the first time up close how adorable its shape and color are.
There are many irregular rhombuses growing on the pineapple, and in the middle of each rhombus there is a thin and pointed small leaf. The small leaf gradually withers, and its tip slowly droops. It's too prickly. There are some small milky white dots at the roots and sides of the small leaves, which is very interesting. There are many triangular leaves overlapping on top of the pineapple. There are some pointed thorns on the edge of the leaves, which are not very prickly when touched. From a distance, the pineapple looks like a fat baby with a few small green hairs on its head, which is very cute.
The skin of the pineapple is orange and very thick; the leaves were originally light green, but they turned into dark green when they got old. When you peel off the pineapple skin, the first thing you see are small pits intertwined with each other. If you look closely, you will see that they are the roots of the small leaves, and their roots are quite deep! The flesh of pineapple is tender yellow. When you see the fresh yellow flesh, you will definitely "saliva drool." Cut the pineapple horizontally. There is a dark yellow heart in the middle and light yellow on the side. , like the radiating sun.
Pineapple tastes so good! Cut a piece of pineapple and put it in your mouth, ah! It's still a bit astringent. Why has the taste changed? It's so different from the pineapples soaked in water that I bought for one yuan a piece at the fruit shop a few times in the past. My mother told me that before eating pineapple, I should soak it in salt water to remove the astringency.
I soaked the pineapple in salt water as my mother did, then took a piece and chewed it in my mouth, ah! Sour and sweet, so delicious!
Pineapple is delicious, I love it!
