1 Hold the kiwi firmly in your left hand if you are right-handed.

2 Place the blade of a knife on top of the kiwi. Hold the knife in your right hand if you are right-handed.

3 Press lightly on the kiwi until you feel the skin is under the knife. You may need to pick it up a bit.

4 Smoothly remove the skin from the bottom up - remove it from yourself, this way you reduce the risk of cutting yourself. Peel the kiwi gently - not too deeply, otherwise you will peel off too much of the fruit pulp along with the skin.

5 Peel all over the fruit in a circle.

Method 2 of 3: Peel the kiwi with a spoon

1. 1 Cut off both ends of the kiwi with a knife.
2. 2 Place a spoon between the skin and the flesh of the fruit (usually a tablespoon will work well). The back of the spoon should be against the skin.
3. 3 Press lightly on the skin and gently twist the kiwi in your hand, pulling the flesh off the skin. When the spoon returns to its original position, the kiwi should fall out.

Method 3 of 3: Boil the kiwi to remove the skin

1. 1 Fill the pot so that the water covers the kiwi. Boil water.
2. 2 Place the kiwis in boiling water and boil them for 20-30 seconds.
3. 3 Remove the kiwis from the hot water and rinse them with cold water. When they are cool so that you can touch them, you can peel them off with your fingers.
4. 4 Ready.

Tips

• If you need the kiwi to ripen, you can leave it at room temperature for a couple of days. To speed up the process, place it in a brown paper bag along with bananas, apples, or pears. The gas from these fruits will help the kiwis ripen faster.
• There is a very quick and easy way to peel kiwi with a teaspoon. This method is suitable for ripe fruits, but don't be too soft. First, cut off both ends of the kiwi. Then, slide a teaspoon under the kiwi peel so that it follows the curves of the fruit. Now slide the spoon forward without going deep into the pulp. Once you've rolled the spoon all over the fruit, it should detach.
• Do not use a knife or fruit knife with a straight blade to peel kiwi. It is easier to clean it with a serrated knife.
• If it is very difficult for you to cut a kiwi without damaging it, then wash it well and eat it directly with the skin.
• Kiwi comes from China, but grows in large numbers in New Zealand, Australia, South America and parts of Europe.

Warnings

• Do not boil over-ripe fruit. The flesh will be too soft and you will have porridge. If this happens, you can turn it into jam.
• Kiwi enzymes produce gelatin; kiwi also curdles milk, which is why it is added in the production of homemade ice cream.
