Preparation

Step 1

Remove the leaves from the pineapple, remove the core, and cut lengthwise into quarters; then cut away the outer peel. Cut 3 pineapple quarters into large chunks, place in a food processor, and puree. Strain the puree through a fine sieve.

Combine the pineapple puree, sugar, salt, peppercorns, spices, and lemon juice in a serving bowl. Slice the remaining pineapple quarter into 1/4-inch thick slices. Clean and stem the strawberries, and cut them in quarters. Add the strawberries to the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
