Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 large pineapple
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons packed brown sugar (preferably dark)
2 tablespoons rum (preferably dark)
Accompaniment: super-premium ice cream

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler and line a shallow baking pan with foil.
  • Trim pineapple leaves to about 2 inches. Quarter pineapple lengthwise, reserving 2 quarters for another use. Cut and discard cores from remaining quarters. With a sharp knife cut fruit from rinds, keeping rinds intact and reserving them. Cut pineapple crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
  • In a small saucepan cook butter, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and rum over moderate heat, stirring, 1 minute. Add pineapple, stirring to coat, and cook mixture 1 minute.
  • Put reserved rinds in baking pan and with a fork and spoon return pineapple pieces to rinds, arranging in original shape. Spoon remaining butter mixture over pineapple and sprinkle tops with remaining tablespoon brown sugar. Broil pineapple about 3 inches from heat until slightly charred and heated through, about 8 minutes.
  • Serve caramelized pineapple with ice cream.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my caramelized pineapple turned out too hard. I think I might have overcooked it.

I'm not a big fan of rum, so I used pineapple juice instead. It was still very good.

This dish is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll use less sugar next time.
