this is a great New Orleans treat, created for breakfast, at Brennan's restaurant in the early 1950s. The original recipe is here transformed slightly by the inclusion of fresh pineapple, an attractive tropical touch. It's a great brunch dessert and you can make it at the stove, thus skipping the showy and risky tableside...

  • Make sure your pineapple is ripe and juicy for the best flavor.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet to prevent the sugar from burning.
  • Cook the pineapple over medium heat so that it has time to caramelize.
  • Don't stir the pineapple too often, or it will release its juices and become watery.
  • Add the butter and brown sugar mixture to the skillet when the pineapple is golden brown.
  • Stir the pineapple and butter mixture constantly until the sugar has melted and caramelized.
  • Add the rum and flambé it carefully, standing back from the skillet to avoid getting burned.
  • Serve the pineapple foster immediately over ice cream, pound cake, or waffles.
