I would give this recipe more that 5 stars, if allowed. It is the most amazing combination of flavors. It's sweet and tart, then you get an after kick of hot pepper, garlic, or cilantro. The lime juice is the perfect ingredient to bring all the flavors together. Excellent! Thank you for sharing this tasty, creative recipe. Definately a recipe to go into my tried & true cookbook.

When choosing fresh pineapple select one that has a brownish/yellow skin. If you buy one already cleaned don't buy it if it has a white-ish appearance. The more yellow the more ripe. And if the acid bothers your mouth, after cleaning sprinkle with salt, give it a good rub then rinse it off. It will be less acidic. Of course I can't help you if you can't resist and make a meal out of it like I do. Happy eating !
