The Easiest Way to Cut a Pineapple

0 Lay the pineapple down so that the green “crown” of the pineapple is touching the cutting board.
1 Slice the crown and the curved bottom of the pineapple. Cutting the bottom off of the pineapple will allow it to stand up without teetering for the next cut!
2 Now that the top and bottom of your pineapple are flat and freshly cut, reposition your pineapple so that what was the crown (but is now a fresh cut) is facing up, and the flat bottom of the pineapple is sitting on the cutting board. Then, with your knife in your dominant hand and your non-dominant hand on the pineapple, run your knife from the top of the pineapple to the bottom, slowly slicing the shell off in strips.
3 With the pineapple and your hands in the same position as in step #2, run your knife from the top of the pineapple to the bottom, cutting the flesh away from the core. The core of the pineapple is about an inch in diameter and should be the only thing standing on the cutting board when you’re done with this step! Go ahead and discard the core once you’re done with this step.
4 Now that you have several (probably 4) big cuts of fresh pineapple sitting on the cutting board, go ahead and slice each of those into thinner strips.
5 Cube the pineapple by cutting the long strips of pineapple crosswise into cubes. Eat now, or store in a container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
