Why You Should Be Salting Your Pineapple
Plus 8 other fruits that taste better with a pinch or two
It’s a mantra we swear by: Just add salt.
But seriously, you’d be surprised how much a dash or a sprinkle can totally transform the taste of the fruits you eat every day.
Here, nine fruits that prove the deliciousness of this salty-sweet combo.
Pineapple
It may seem counterintuitive, but salt actually makes pineapple taste even sweeter.
Avocado
Nothing brings out the creamy goodness of avocado more than a sprinkle of salt.
Peaches
Sure, regular salt will do, but smoked salt on peaches? Even better.
Tomatoes
Heirloom or not--salt (and a little pepper, too) turns these guys into the perfect summer snack.
Green Apples
Granny Smiths (and flaky kosher salt) required.
Watermelon
Bold flavor rush.
Cantaloupe
Salt draws the sweetness out of this typically musky fruit.
Strawberries
Sophistication in berry form.
