How to Peel a Kiwi Fruit
Know the Kiwi Fruit
Kiwi Fruits are basically the "Sweetarts" of the fruit and vegetable world! They can be simply sweet, sour, or a hint of both.
When eaten ripe, these fruits are delightfully delectable snacks!
Things you need to know:
- Don't eat unripe Kiwi
- Don't eat rotten or spoiled Kiwi
- You can eat the skin of a Kiwi without peeling it, but the skin and outer layer can potentially make your mouth itch. *You try it at your own risk.*
- Kiwi that is too green (AKA not ripe enough) can be hard, and it does not taste as good. Fresh, and ripe Kiwi is best for uncooked-consumption.
