Ripening and storing Kiwi fruit

For the past couple of weeks there has been kiwi fruit in the FIG food boxes and it's needed a little ripening!

Kiwi fruit picked when very ripe can tend to go mushy quickly, so leave these harder Kiwi fruits on your kitchen bench to ripen naturally or, if you want to ripen them more quickly, place them in a paper bag with a banana or apple.

Best if stored separately to other fruit and can be placed in the fridge when soft, to keep for a longer time...
