Pineapple Chow | Trini Carnival Eats 🇹🇹

Chow is a refreshing, peppery & herbaceous fruit salad. It's a popular item at carnival fetes because alcohol and pepper go great together. After wining to the sweet sounds of soca, a refreshing snack always hits the spot!
Ingredients
🍍 1 ripe pineapple
🌿 6-8 bandhani/culantro/chadon beni leaves (use cilantro as a substitute)
🧄 8-10 cloves of garlic, minced
🌶 Hot pepper/s (your preference)
🍋 The juice of a small lime (1 tbsp)
🧂 Salt & black pepper

You took me back to granny kitchen. When I was growing up, my grandmother used to cut the pineapple in 4 to remove the center. I have eaten cucumber, mango, guava, pommecythere and pineapple chow; and I’m sure there are so many more I don’t remember. Yes, please share the recipe for the refresher.

hi reshmi this chow looks so delicious👍👍👍👍💜💙❤️💚

[@terrancecoard388]

Well that took me back to sitting under my grandmother's mango tree in Chaguanas. Although you can get a sweet juicy pineapple here in Northern Pennsylvania, the outside would never look as good.

[@sharmilapersaud967]

Yummy!!!

[@kolis_lady]

Yummy❤

[@joebabyboy2918]

Love it Trini to de bone 🦴

[@wtrdogg20]

We use the pineapple skin to make a beverage called Arroz con Piña (Rice and Pineapple). Very tasty and refreshing at anytime.
Greetings from Panama!! I really have a special place in my heart for Trinbago!! A special country with great people! Hope I can land there again soon!!

[@TasteofTrini]

Sounds so refreshing! Aww, I hope to visit Panama also 🙏🏽

[@johnnyshades2743]

Hello Reshmi i add a pinch of brown sugar. Now we can get that orange powder (on the salt prunes) to buy its actually a type of Chinese seasoning.

[@Namapeedhgnis]

Love you dear ❣️

[@karminiparsan9256]

My favourite chow..any ripe fruit will do though😁

[@sherrysnyder4195]

[@sheriffabasdeo969]

Watch nah, I so love pineapple chow but when I saw what the pine chow man made this with salt prunes, I told my daughter I have to try it and boom it definitely enhanced it to another leave & making that juice with the peel is the best

[@triciaquacco3986]

Yummy

[@sandramahadeo4910]

Hi Natasha good night to you and your family I’ve never heard or see anybody did it this evening I made pineapple chow for my children have a great week ahead bye.

[@trishanajeenath5923]

Natasha? No its Reshmi

[@sandramahadeo4910]

Hi Reshmi good night I made chow for my children they love pineapple and have a restful night bye.

[@triciaquacco3986]

I love are good chow

[@elizabethroblyn1392]

I have heard that salt prune in alcohol prevents you from getting high quickly. I'm anxious to get the recipe for the pineapple refreshing drink

[@helsingor8]

Hi Reshmi - could you please do a video on the pineapple skin drink, the next time you cut one? thanks :)

[@adeshtikasingh7889]

Hi good to see you, you don't come on for a long time, please share your Granny's pineapple drink thanks.

[@michaelsalmon6436]

Hi Trini! Thanks for sharing this recipe with us. Please, tell me the name of that ingredient that you added at the end of the recipe, after the lime. I am hard of hearing and I think that it sounded like "salt mango"?. You added this as 2 red strips at about the 6:15 mark of the youtube . It does not appear in your ingredient list. Also, please, what do you do with all those chunks of luscious pineapple that you remove during the preparation? (BTW, the 20 seconds of you massaging the salt into that mango was certainly erotic enough to get this youtube banned in several States of the USA! Texas, for sure! LOL!) Happy cooking!

[@ruthnettles1677]

I believe it’s preserved salt prunes and salt mangoes from Trinidad….

[@lenablackburn2354]

Please send the video for the pineapple drink.

[@rasheedgulab6855]

Looks delicious but u missing the salt prunes

[@ChefNaomi81]

Be nice to see the recipe in the comments
