How do you eat your Kiwi fruit?

[Mum2Romone]

we have a heap of kiwi fruit. I have never ever tried it before and I have always though it would taste weird. maybe something about the furry skin. ( I know you dont eat that part) although some people do

So how do you eat your kiwi fruit? Do you do anything special with it? or have an recipes you use it in?

DH said " i'll put sugar on it and just eait it" hes italian...and they do that wih heaps of other foods like tomatoes....so I had to laugh......

any ideas?

They are yummy just as they are you dont need sugar on them!

My kids go nuts for them just cut in half and scoop out the fleshy bit with a spoon. You can wash them so the fuzz comes off and eat the skin like that but eeewwww not for me thanks.

They are a really good source of fibre and are one of the few fruits that dont freeze.

Not as good as Feijoas of course but yummy all the same

We usually eat ours like FM, cut in half and scoop out with a spoon, well unless you're DS who needs his peeled and diced or DD who has hers quartered long ways and eats it like an orange

Can't say I've used it in a recipe unless you count as decoration on a pav

eta no sugar required!

i eat them skin and all

[Raupe]

Yep, cut in half and eat the flesh with the spoon. Otherwise peel, cut up and toss in a fruit salad!

If they need sugar they probably aren't totally ripe. They should be soft but not gooey. Even ripe they can give your tongue a bit of a tingle. Cut them in half and eat them with a spoon. As others have said they are great in fruit salad.

When I was pregnant I ate them like this to help prevent constipation, worked a treat! I had one every morning, just cut it up and ate it.
Otherwise I peel, cut and eat or in a fruit salad or on top of something like a Pav.

I'm with Heather! Pav!!!! Yummo, and what a good excuse to eat cream

Otherwise, DS eats a lot of kiwi fruit, sliced or diced and I love it just to snack on. No sugar, usually they're sweet enough

[~Hestia~]

We cut it in half and scoop it out with a spoon

[Teeki]

Oh yum, now I wish we had some kiwis, I'd love one right now! I just cut in half and eat with a spoon, I had no idea you could eat the skin!

[Eenee]

I usually wash and eat the whole thing the skin is edible and good source of fibre

[Sopdet]

whole, washed & with skin on

[Lisa]

whole, washed & with skin on

That's how we eat it too.
