How To Store Kiwi?

Kiwis are a delicious and healthy fruit, but they can be tricky to store properly. Here are a few tips to keep your kiwis fresh for as long as possible:

1. Keep Unripe Kiwis At Room Temperature

If your kiwis are still hard to the touch, it’s best to keep them at room temperature. This will allow them to ripen evenly and slowly, so they’ll be perfectly ripe when you’re ready to eat them.

2. Refrigerate Ripe Kiwis

Once your kiwis are ripe, they should be stored in the refrigerator. This will slow down the ripening process and keep them fresh for longer.

3. Avoid Storing Kiwis Near Ethylene-Producing Fruits

Kiwis are sensitive to ethylene, a gas that speeds up the ripening process. So, it’s best to avoid storing kiwis near fruits like apples, bananas, and avocados that produce a lot of ethylene.

4. Keep Kiwis Dry

Moisture can cause kiwis to become mushy and spoil quickly. To prevent this, make sure to dry your kiwis thoroughly before storing them.

5. Use Them Quickly

Kiwis are highly perishable, so it’s best to eat them as soon as possible after purchasing them. If you can’t eat them all at once, you can slice or chop them and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a few days.

By following these tips, you’ll be able to store kiwis properly and enjoy their sweet taste and juicy texture for as long as possible.
