“Disclosure: The equipment used to create this recipe for Spicy Pickled Pineapple has been provided by SousVide Supreme.”
Pickling is an art and a preservation technique from the past that nowadays has become very popular. Many cuisines including the Italian, the French, the Mexican and the Brazilian cuisines include in their menu favorites pickled fruits and veggies to serve as a snack or to complement a meal. Inspired in the Brazilian mineira cuisine and its varied array of peppers called “pimenta” I have created a recipe for Spicy Pickled Pineapple on Sous Vide. This could become a great gourmet gift cooked by you to give away family and friends during the holidays. Nothing better than a gift coming from your kitchen.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup of Brazilian peppers (pimenta malagueta, cayenne, cumari de pere, arbol, fildalga, biquinho)
- 2 cups of fresh pineapple cut in squares
- 1 large purple onion cut in rounds or juliennes
- 1 teaspoon of pickling spice
- 1 teaspoon of red pepper
- 1 1/2 teaspoon of ground pink salt (you can use pickling salt if desired)
- 1/3 cup of apple cider vinegar
Preparation time: 30 minutes. You will need a chopping block, a knife and a Sous Vide. Canning jars if desired. Serves 4 cups.
Fill the SousVide Supreme with water and set the temperature to 140 grades Fahrenheit. Chop the ingredients of the list as directed and add them to the appropriate plastic bag to cook using sous vide technique, this is a standard plastic pouch. Following add the pickling spices, the salt and the vinegar. Cook for 30 minutes.
Pickling typically is done on the stove yet it can be done using the sous vide technique and the results are exceptional. The sous vide is a cooking technique that we home chefs and cooks shouldn’t be afraid of, it saves time, you can cook a ton of food at a time and if you love your slow cooker you will fall in love with the SousVide Supreme.
If you are a foodie or you have a foodie friend that likes to test gadgets and actually cook with them fabulous meals the SousVide Supreme should be on the list for your holiday gifting. I invite you to try sous vide and this Spicy Pickled Pineapple recipe, you will love it and this could become a great gourmet gift cooked by you to give away family and friends. Nothing better than a gift coming from your kitchen.
