4. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and gently stir the water until the salt dissolves.
5. Let the kiwi soak in the salt water for about 5β10 minutes. This soaking process can help remove small insects, dirt, or residue that might be on the fruit.
6. After soaking, remove the kiwi slices and rinse them well under clean running water to wash away the salt and any remaining particles.
7. Your kiwi is now ready to eat, add to fruit salads, smoothies, or desserts.
Tip:
Many people use the salt-water soaking method to help clean fruits like berries, grapes, or kiwis because the salt can encourage tiny insects or debris to detach from the fruitβs surface. Always rinse the fruit well afterward for the best taste and cleanliness.
