It’s time to eat kiwi fruit again, but… there are always complaints that it’s not delicious:
Domestic kiwi fruit is always hard and sour, is it better to import it? Should I choose the soft one or the hard one? Why is my kiwi fruit not ripe after two weeks?
In fact, kiwi fruit is delicious, but we can’t eat it. Dr. Clove invited Teacher Fan to teach you how to eat the best kiwi fruit.
Kiwifruit, you have to choose the hard one to buy.
Some fruits must be picked and sold in a stiff state, otherwise they will be soft and rotten and cannot be transported.
This is the case with most kiwifruits on the market. After buying them home, they need to ripen. Those fruits that are partially softened due to collision are usually small pieces that become soft and taste of wine or even rot, while the rest are still hard and sour.
Therefore, the first step in choosing kiwi fruit is not to choose kiwi fruit that has become soft.
Kiwifruit should be chosen this way.
In the supermarket, first gently touch the kiwi fruit with your hand … (don’t think about it! )
- Actinidia fruits that are hard and unbruised need not be huge, but must be full in shape.
In particular, the base and head of kiwifruit are relatively plump, indicating that it has grown to its maximum.
Many people have confusion:
Why does kiwi fruit not soften after two weeks of buying it?
Yes, this kind of kiwi fruit, which is very hard all over, will not ripen and soften until it wilts in autumn and winter because the weather is cooler.
This is because they need to receive a messenger [it’s time to mature] before they can start the ripening process. However, after being picked in advance and leaving the fruit trees, they will remain stiff without receiving this messenger.
If knocked, tissue damage will cause the fruit to start ripening in advance. Unfortunately, microorganisms will reproduce in the wound before ripening. As a result, kiwi fruit will change its taste before it becomes soft.
What should I do?
It is very simple, we can use the [ripe messenger] produced by other ripe fruits to artificially ripen kiwifruit!
Ripe fruits will produce the gas [ethylene] themselves, while kiwi fruit will start the ripening process when exposed to enough ethylene.
Kiwifruit tastes good at home [ripening]
You can do this:
After buying it home, take the amount that can be eaten in 2 days and put it in a sealed plastic bag together with fragrant ripe fruits (apples, bananas, pears and mangoes can be used), leaving it stuffed at room temperature for 2-5 days.
In two days, you can press the base of kiwi fruit (the pedicle with a round scar) gently through the bag. Feeling slightly deformed, but it is not too soft, so take it out quickly and it tastes just right. It is OK to put it for one day, but don’t wait until it is very soft to take it out again, it will be too ripe.
The delicacy of fruits lies in accurately mastering maturity!
If you don’t eat it in time, kiwi fruit has become soft all over your body, but it is not necessarily rotten. As long as there is no peculiar smell, you can also eat it, but the flavor and taste will be greatly reduced.
You don’t need to peel kiwi fruit, just eat it in half from the middle and then dig it with a small spoon.
Batch [ripening], delicious
The kiwifruit on the Internet is often sold in boxes, and it is very likely that you cannot eat it all at once. It is suggested to divide it into different bags and pack one bag every two days so as to stagger the ripening time. In this way, you can continuously eat the kiwifruit with moderate maturity, sweet and sour taste!
As long as this method is used, you can realize that many domestic kiwifruits are really delicious, sweet and sour, with rich taste, and do not lose imported kiwifruits at all.
In fact, the VC content of many domestic kiwifruit varieties is also higher than that of imported products… It’s just that farmers’ uncles didn’t advertise.
