Remarks
If you can, make your tart cases with coconut sweetcrust pastry.
Similarly, if you don't have a Victoria pineapple, a normal one will do fine.
In stage 3, you can caramelise the pineapple by cooking it until the juice evaporates completely, then flambé it with rum, if you like.

When to add salt to cooking water?
Is it better to salt cooking water, for vegetables for example, at the beginning when it is cold or when it boils? I always heard that one should salt "after", when water is boiling, because if it is salted "before" it will take longer to boil. True or false? Let's try the experiment...

Dublin fruit scones
Scones originated in Britain and Ireland. The Irish version is often made plain and traditionally served with tea. Scones are more of a bread than a cake, eaten split in half and spread with butter or jam, for example. There are also sweeter versions and scones with dried fruit, like the ones I have made here.
