The care does not stop when the fruit leaves the grove. A few small habits make the kitchen part of the journey easier.
Give it a cool place.
Keep fruit away from direct sunshine and heat. A cool, airy spot is useful for fruit you will eat soon; refrigeration can help it keep longer.
Let air move.
Avoid trapping moisture around the fruit. Leave space for ventilation and check stored fruit regularly.
Check the bowl.
Remove any fruit showing mould, leaking, or becoming very soft. Storage life varies with the condition of the fruit and the conditions around it.
Enjoy it your way.
Pull apart the segments for a simple winter snack, or squeeze and strain the seeds for a fresh glass. Kinnow brings its own lively sweet-tart flavour.
