Pineapple Flowers

This is a garnish recipe that I pieced together from an instagram post by @chefthomaskeller. By far the tastiest and most visually striking garnish I've come across. Check the link for pictures. Sorry for the formatting issues.

Ingredients

  • 1 pineapple

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 250f.
  2. Remove the ends and peel from your pineapple. Dig out the eyes as well.
  3. Slice the pineapple as thinly as possible. You should be able to see your knife through the pineapple as you cut. It would be great to maybe freeze the whole thing and then cut it on a meat slicer, but this is real life, so I don't blame you if that's not an option.
  4. Arrange the slices on a silpat or a piece of parchment and bake for 30 minutes.
  5. Flip each slice gently and go for another 30 minutes or so.
  6. They're ready when they're golden brown. Depending on how thin you're able to get your slices, you may need more or less time in the oven.
  7. To get the full flower effect, nestle the slices in a muffin tin and let them set over night. http://ift.tt/1ohnC2Q
