FAQS:
1. Can I use canned pineapple instead of fresh?
Yes, but fresh ripe pineapple gives the best flavor and texture. If using canned, drain extra well to avoid excess liquid.
2. How spicy is pineapple salsa?
It has a very mild kick from the jalapeño, but you can adjust the spice level by adding more or less. For extra heat, keep the seeds!
3. How long does pineapple salsa last?
Store salsa in an airtight container in the fridge for no more than 3 days. The flavors get even better as they marinate! But also, it will get more juicy as it sits.
4. What goes well with pineapple salsa?
Fresh Pineapple Salsa is so delicious with grilled chicken, fish tacos, pork, shrimp, or even as a topping for burgers and don’t forget grain bowls.
