The easiest way to cut a pineapple is by using a sharp knife. First, place the pineapple on its side on top of a cutting board and slice the crown. Stand the apple upright and carefully cut away the skin from top to bottom. It is advisable not to cut away the eyes, because you would need the extra layer for shaping. Cut the bottom half inch of the pineapple and then use a small knife to carve out the pineapple.
This is where the eyes of the pineapple will be of significant use because you can take it as a marker where to carve the fruit perfectly. Once done, you have an option whether you want to cut the pineapple into rounds or chunks.
