Kiwi fruit tastes best raw and is a rich source of Vitamin C. It can be mixed into fruit salads and added to pavlovas, and is often eaten as part of a breakfast fruit plate.
Kiwi can irritate some people’s throats or stomachs when eaten puréed, dried or juiced as it contains crystals of calcium oxylate. It also contains enzymes that prevent gelatine from setting, so it is difficult to make kiwi jelly unless you cook the fruit first.
