Science Says We Have Been Eating Kiwi The Wrong Way
Most people just eat the flesh of kiwi, but recent investigation has suggested that the skin should be eaten too, as it gives access to more vitamins and nutrients than the inside. It’s just that the skin is covered in a very fine fuzz and has a more bitter taste, that may be uncomfortable or unpleasant to eat. However, there are methods and options to eliminate this problem. In fact, the bitterness of the skin complements the sweetness of the flesh perfectly and with easy preparation, the entire fruit can be consumed.
How to eat the skin
The easiest and most pleasant way to consume the kiwi skin for added health benefits is to gently rub the unpleasant fuzz off with a cloth. Dirt and other pollutants such as pesticides can get caught in the tiny hairs so it is important to wash the fruit properly if you plan to consume it. An easy and effective way to do this is to add some white vinegar to water and soak the fruit for a few minutes before rinsing thoroughly.
Kiwi is also great for blending. These days with the popularity of super juices and blending machines, you can pop an entire kiwi or several in with either an abundance of other ingredients or on their own and blend away. You could add some honey or pure maple syrup to sweeten it a little and drink your kiwi.
