Produce OASIS Tip of the Day


July 1 - Pineapple: A Natural Tenderizer

Pineapple has its own super-powerful tenderizer. It's an enzyme called bromelain. For this reason, fresh pineapple should not be used in gelatin recipes. When adding fresh pineapple to any protein dish, always serve immediately. When held longer, the food will become over-tenderized or mushy.


OASIS has much more information on tropical fruit.
