"This is genuinely why I haven't gone down this route.
Can you make a pickle with them?
Probably but I wouldn't. I will have to Google and see if I can cook them. "
Or a jam with something sweeter like apples? |

I think you over estimate my culinary abilities  . I reckon jam would be a good use of them. I think I'll keep them and simmer in orange juice then eat with Greek yogurt.  |

If you have a slow cooker you can make jam. Also many bread makers have a jam setting |

Now you're underestimating my laziness . My bread maker does have a jam setting. I think I might actually have a look at that because Mr N likes jam. |

"This week I've got a surplus of kiwi fruit...they are not ripe. I've had them in a paper bag with an apple (no bananas in the box) but they don't seem to be ripening. Any ideas?"
Put them in the airing cupboard or on a radiator..that should do the trick..it worked with some unripened mango's I bought.. |

"Peel them before eating
Don't laugh, I once worked with a woman who didn't know that 
What happens if you don't?"
Well, she survived to tell the tale so, I guess, very little other than a mouthful of horrible furryness |

Most of the nutritional value is in the skin. Chop on it like an apple |

They don't need peeling. Roughage. "
You can make fake moustaches,beards and eyebrows with them... maybe even a mirkin  |

"You need to put them with Bananas I’m afraid
I was thinking that.  "
I think the same, sorry . Ethylene is the plant hormone used to ripen them naturally. I find bananas produce the biggest amount of ethylene by a long shot. A warm room temperature should be sufficient, when bagged. |

. When they're ripe I eat them like a boiled egg, take the top off and eat with a spoon.
