The reason why pineapple should be soaked in salt water before eating is because pineapple contains more bromelain and glucoside, which can hydrolyze protein. After eating, it will cause great irritation to human oral mucosa, and most of it can be removed after soaking in salt water.
Compared with pineapple, pineapple contains less bromelain and glycosides, so it is not necessary to soak it in salt water if it is only eaten in a small amount, but if it is eaten in a large amount, it is recommended to soak it for a while before eating it.
How long does it take to soak pineapple in salt water for about half an hour?
Bromelain contained in pineapple is an allergic substance, which will stimulate oral mucosa and lip epidermis after eating, but it can be destroyed by salt water or boiled water. Therefore, it is better to soak pineapple in salt water for about half an hour before eating, which will be more conducive to health.
Moreover, after soaking, the organic acids contained in pineapple can also be dissolved in salt water, so the pineapple soaked in salt water will taste sweeter.
3. The salt water ratio of pickled pineapple is 1: 10.
Generally, the proportion of brine used for soaking pineapple is 1: 10, that is, 50g of salt is mixed with 500ml of water to make brine. Generally speaking, a pineapple can be soaked in about 500 ml of salt water. It should be noted that the water for preparing salt water needs to be boiled and cooled thoroughly.
If you think the soaked pineapple tastes too salty, you can also rinse it under clear water to remove excess salt, so it won't be too salty.
