Fresh pineapple contains an enzyme called bromelain, which breaks down proteins. When a base is added to fresh pineapple, it can cause the proteins to denature and coagulate, leading to solidification. This reaction is similar to how cooking or heat affects proteins, altering their structure and resulting in a firmer texture.
