Gold/Green: Either gold or green kiwi can be used to make this kiwi puree recipe. They have very different flavor profiles. Green is quite tangy, a little like the tang you get from citrus fruit. Gold is sweeter and tastes more like a tropical fruit.
Liquid: Generally depending on your blender you will not need additional liquid to make kiwi puree. You can add a little water, breast milk or formula if needed.
Start with ripe kiwi. You can tell if a kiwi fruit is ripe by holding the kiwi in the palm of your hand and then gently press the fruit. A ripe kiwi will give a little when you press, an unripe kiwi will be hard and firm.
If your blender is struggling to puree the fruit, my first tip is to add a bit more kiwifruit to the blender! Sometimes our blenders and food processors perform better if bigger quantities are used.
You can always add liquid if you feel like your blender is still struggling.
When making baby purees such as kiwifruit puree you can always add a little breastmilk or baby formula.
Portion any extras into a baby food or ice cube tray to freeze.
Store in an airtight container or jar in the fridge for up to 4 days, or store in your freezer for up to 4 months.
