Tips
Great ideas for purchasing, storing, and consuming kiwi.
- Look for kiwis that are firm but not rock-hard. Avoid any that are bruised or have soft spots or brown areas on the skin.
- If you’re buying a box of kiwis, check the bottom of the box for condensation—that’s an indicator that the fruit has been sitting around too long in the store and might be overripe by the time you get it home or eat it.
- If you’re not using the kiwi right away, store it at room temperature in a paper bag with other fruit. If you’re going to store kiwis for more than a day or two, refrigerate them in an open container (not a sealed one).
- The easiest way to cut a kiwi is with a serrated knife—it will easily cut through the skin and flesh without squishing or bruising the fruit. You can also peel it with your hands or a paring knife.
- Kiwis are great additions to fruit salads and green salads. They can also be pureed or juiced into smoothies, sauces, and dressings.
