Picking the perfect Kiwifruit • Hold kiwi in palm of hand and squeeze

gently. A ripe kiwi will yield to slight pressure like an avocado or peach. Green Kiwi tastes sweeter when ripe. SunGold Kiwi tastes sweeter when softer.

• To ripen, leave out at room temperature for 3-7 days. Ripe kiwifruit can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Fun fact about KiwifruitKiwifruit contains a natural enzyme called actinidin that breakdowns protein, making it perfect for marinades.

Tips for storing potatoes• Store potatoes in a cool, dark, well-ventilated

area, protect from direct light.• Do not store in unventilated plastic bags.• Potatoes will last 1-2 weeks at room

temperature and several months at 45-50°F.• Storing potatoes exposed to excessive light

will cause them to turn green and develop a bitter flavor.

• If the potato has developed green, that section can be removed before cooking.

• It is best not to wash potatoes before storing.• Do not refrigerate or freeze potatoes. At

temperatures below 42°F the starch will begin to turn into sugar.

• Check your potatoes periodically for signs of spoilage such as greening, sprouting or rot. One rotten potato will infect others around it, so removing any deteriorating potatoes will make the rest last longer.
