Many people like to eat kiwi fruit, but it is a late-ripening fruit, and it is mainly produced in southern China.

Today, the editor will specifically introduce this knowledge, so that everyone can understand several methods of ripening kiwi fruit.

How to ripen kiwi fruit

The simplest and most common method to ripen kiwifruit is to use high temperature to ripen it. When people buy kiwifruit that is not fully ripe, they can put it into a sealable plastic bag, seal the mouth and put it in a relatively high temperature environment, use the high temperature of the environment to ripen the kiwifruit, so that after 2 to 3 days, the kiwifruit inside will become soft and can be taken out and eaten directly.

What are the methods for ripening kiwi fruit?

1. There are many different ways to ripen kiwi fruit. In addition to the high temperature method introduced above, it can also be ripened with fully ripe fruits because those fruits can release a certain amount of ethylene during storage, and ethylene can accelerate the ripening of kiwi fruit. After buying kiwi fruit, people can put it in the same plastic bag with naturally ripened fruits such as apples and pears, tie the mouth tightly, and then put it in a warm environment. After 2 to 3 days, the kiwi fruit will be ripe.

2. Kiwifruit can also be ripened by destroying the skin. When ripening kiwifruit, poke some small holes on the surface of the kiwifruit with a clean toothpick, and then put it in a clean fresh-keeping bag and seal it for 1-2 days. The kiwifruit will quickly soften and you can take out the kiwifruit and eat it directly. However, the kiwifruit ripened in this way must be used as soon as possible after ripening and cannot be stored, otherwise it will easily rot and deteriorate.

3. Kiwifruit can also be ripened by drugs. If you want to ripen kiwifruit in large quantities, you can spray a proper amount of drugs on their surface and then use quilts to keep them warm. After 24 hours, the kiwifruit will become soft, but the kiwifruit ripened in this way is likely to have pesticide residues on the surface, which will be harmful to your health.
