How to make kiwi fruit ripen faster

Kiwi fruit is known as the king of vitamin C. It tastes sweet and sour and has high nutritional value. When we usually buy kiwi fruit, we often choose relatively hard kiwi fruit so that it can be stored for a longer time after being brought home. If you want to ripen it quickly and eat it sooner, you can put the kiwi fruit in a warmer place to help it mature quickly. You can also use apples to ripen it.

How to make kiwi fruit ripen faster

1. Use apples to ripen kiwis

If you want to make very hard kiwi fruit soften quickly, the best way is to use apples to ripen it. Apple is a naturally ripening fruit. It releases a certain amount of ethylene when stored. After this substance is absorbed by kiwi fruit, it will accelerate the ripening of kiwi fruit and make it soften. The specific method is to put three or four apples and five or six kiwis in a plastic bag, seal it, put it in a warm place, and take it out after three days.

2. Use drugs to ripen kiwifruit

Using drugs to ripen kiwifruit can also make it soften quickly. Ethylene is a common drug used to ripen kiwifruit. You should add the drug to clean water, dilute it, and then spray it directly on the surface of the kiwifruit. After spraying, cover the kiwifruit with a quilt. After one or two days, you will find that the originally hard kiwifruit has become soft.

3. Don’t eat hard kiwi fruit

Some people in life are afraid that ripening kiwis is too troublesome and want to eat them directly. Here I want to remind everyone that hard and unripe kiwis cannot be eaten. Not only do they taste astringent, they can also damage the mucous membrane in the human mouth and the protein in the food, causing some uncomfortable symptoms to the human body and are particularly detrimental to maintaining good health.
