Step 1
Start by tossing fresh pineapple chunks into your blender, along with egg yolks, sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt.

Blend everything together until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency that’s bursting with tropical flavor.
Step 3
Next, transfer this vibrant mixture into a saucepan and set it over medium heat.
