First grown in China and a nutritional powerhouse, the furry little kiwifruit is full of surprises!
Prized for its tangy flavour and emerald-green flesh, kiwifruit (actinidia deliciosa) is a Chinese native called ‘yang tao‘, also known as ‘Chinese gooseberry’ in English. Yang tao seeds were brought to New Zealand in the early 20th century where they were commercially grown and called ‘kiwifruit’, the name that would be adopted officially by international trade in 1974. Today kiwifruit is grown all over the world.

这种毛茸茸的小猕猴桃最初生长在中国，是一种营养丰富的水果，充满了惊喜！
猕猴桃（美味猕猴桃）以其浓郁的味道和翠绿的果肉而闻名，是中国本土的一种水果，名为“洋桃”，在英语中也被称为“中华猕猴桃”。杨桃种子于20世纪初被带到新西兰，在那里被商业化种植，并被称为“猕猴桃”，这一名称于1974年被国际贸易正式采用。如今，猕猴桃在世界各地都有种植。

Buying
The kiwifruit looks like a small, brown, furry egg and is available throughout the year. Select fruit that gives a little but is also firm and heavy for its size. Avoid fruit that is soft, wrinkled or bruised.
购买
猕猴桃看起来像一个棕色的小皮蛋，全年都有售。选择一种水果，它能提供一点营养，但就其大小而言，它又结实又重。避免吃柔软、起皱或碰伤的水果。

Storage
For maximum storage life, store kiwifruit alone. Fruits such as apples and bananas produce ethylene gas that can hasten ripening. Ripe kiwifruit can be stored in the fridge for up to seven days.
保管部
为了延长猕猴桃的储存寿命，请单独储存。苹果和香蕉等水果会产生乙烯气体，加速成熟。成熟的猕猴桃可以在冰箱里储存长达七天。

Preparation
You can cut kiwifruit in half crossways and scoop out the fruit with a spoon or peel and cut kiwifruit as necessary (see How to peel a kiwifruit). When pureeing kiwifruit, stop processing before crushing the seeds, which are slightly bitter. Take care when combining kiwifruit with dairy as an enzyme in the fruit can cause curdling, and avoid using kiwifruit with gelatine as the same enzyme can prevent it from setting.
准备工作
你可以把猕猴桃切成两半，然后用勺子舀出水果，或者根据需要去皮（见如何去皮猕猴桃）。将猕猴桃捣成泥时，在压碎种子之前停止加工，因为种子有点苦。将猕猴桃与乳制品混合时要小心，因为水果中的酶会导致凝结，避免将猕猴桃与明胶混合使用，因为同样的酶可以防止它凝结。

Green kiwifruit is the most popular. The dull green-brown skin is covered in short, stiff hair. Underneath is bright green flesh and a small white centre surrounded by rows of small, black, edible seeds. The flavour is sometimes described as a mix of strawberry, banana and pineapple.

品种
绿色猕猴桃最受欢迎。暗绿色的棕色皮肤上覆盖着短而硬的头发。下面是亮绿色的果肉和一个白色的小中心，周围是一排排黑色的可食用种子。这种味道有时被描述为草莓、香蕉和菠萝的混合。
Gold kiwifruit was developed in the 1980s. It looks similar to the green but has a smoother (almost hair-free), bronze skin and a pointed cap at one end. The distinctive golden yellow flesh is less tart with a more tropical flavour (a hint of mango) than green kiwifruit.
金猕猴桃是在20世纪80年代开发的。它看起来与绿色相似，但有更光滑（几乎无毛）的青铜色皮肤和一端的尖帽。独特的金黄色果肉比绿色猕猴桃不那么酸，更有热带风味
