① Mix the ingredients for the syrup in a pot and bring to a boil.

② Once boiling, turn off the heat, add the lemon peel and herbs, and the syrup is ready.

③ Soak the kiwi in the hot syrup and leave it in the refrigerator overnight. Serve in your favorite dish and enjoy the aroma. The kiwi is also beautiful when it has become slightly translucent after being submerged in the syrup.


[Tip] Slicing kiwi lengthwise gives it a different look than usual.

Kiwi that has been left overnight and herbs are perfect for breakfast or a snack. This time, we'll introduce three different variations using the "Kiwi and Herb Marinade" we made.

1. Caprese with Mozzarella Cheese

First, remove the kiwi from the syrup and place the mozzarella cheese in a bowl. Next, add a generous amount of olive oil and black pepper and mix. The milky texture of the mozzarella pairs perfectly with the refreshing acidity of the kiwi.

2. Place on yogurt

Remove the kiwi from the syrup and place it on yogurt. If you prefer it sweeter, try adding honey. Add any remaining rosemary to a plate for a beautiful presentation.

3. Detox Water with Syrup

Syrup made by soaking kiwi fruit overnight is packed with water-soluble vitamins. Mix it with carbonated water and enjoy it like detox water. You can also add honey to taste! It's also delicious when you add a little herb and drink it warm.

Seasonal fruits are rich in nutrients and will invigorate your body. Why not try this recipe and enjoy a slightly more luxurious morning than usual?
