Chow is a spicy dish of pickled fruit enjoyed in Trinidad and Tobago. Despite its fiery flavor, the briny sweetness makes it a refreshing snack in the blazing sun.

3 pounds pineapple, peeled, cored, and cubed
3 garlic cloves, peeled and minced (1 tablespoon)
1 Scotch bonnet pepper, minced (more as desired)
Chadon beni leaves (culantro), finely chopped (0.5 oz)
1 lime, juiced (2 tablespoons)
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt, adjust to taste
Instructions
