How to store and ripen kiwi fruit

1. How to store kiwi fruit

1. Selection: You can select the kiwis in advance, eat the ones that are about to ripen first, and select those that are harder and unripe to preserve.

2. Store in a cool place: Kiwis will be eaten after a while, so you can put them in a plastic bag or box, keep the bag ventilated, and then store them in a cool place. Be careful to avoid direct sunlight and do not place it in a well-ventilated place, otherwise a lot of moisture will be lost.

3. Store in the refrigerator: Put the kiwi fruit in a fresh-keeping bag, and then store it in the fresh-keeping layer of the refrigerator at a suitable temperature. It can be stored for a period of time at low temperature, and you can take it out and eat it after a while.

2. How to ripen kiwi fruit

After kiwifruit is ripe, it is easy to rot and be damaged. In order to ensure that the kiwifruit does not rot during transportation, merchants will pick and transport it before it is ripe. Sometimes the kiwifruit we buy is relatively hard. Raise the temperature of the kiwifruit storage environment. When the temperature rises, the metabolism becomes more active, and the kiwifruit will ripen faster. You can also prepare a bag, put the kiwi together with ripe fruits such as apples, bananas, and pears and seal it. The ripe fruits will emit ethylene, which plays a role in ripening. After a few days, if the kiwi becomes soft by gently pinching it, you can peel it and eat it.
