We can prepare two possible versions of the pineapple tart: the cold one, ideal for summer, which is what we are going to prepare next with this recipe, and the baked pineapple tart or inverted pineapple cake, very different but equally delicious.
The pineapple cake without an oven that we are going to prepare next with a mousse-like texture or pineapple cake It has no complications and the result is spectacular. Following two small recommendations indicated in this recipe, we will get a cake of ten.
The first thing to keep in mind when preparing this recipe is that pineapple juice should boil for a few seconds. This is necessary because pineapple has a proteolytic enzyme called bromelain or bromelain that will cause the gelatin to not set. Simply letting the pineapple juice boil for about 30 seconds, we eliminate it and our cake will be completely curdled.
The next point to take into account will be to semi-mount the cream, so we will get a airy and smooth mousse texture. We will know that the cream is ready when the beaters of the mixer begin to mark the cream.
By following these two points to the letter, we will achieve an optimal result in our pineapple tart.
