Notes
🎥 VideoHow to Hull Strawberries videoHow to peel a kiwi with a spoon🍽EquipmentTo make this Classic Fruit Salad, you will need a large cutting board (affiliate link), a good chefs knife (affiliate link) and I recommend a small paring knife (affiliate link) for peeling. You'll also want a set of salad serving spoons (affiliate link).🌡️StorageIf you want to make this Old Fashioned Fruit salad in advance, I don't recommend making it any sooner than the night before. Add the dressing right before serving. Leftover are good for 2 days in the fridge in a sealed container (affiliate link).💭 Top TipDon't throw away your peach juice- add it to the juice in your fridge (it goes great with orange juice!) This is what my Mom always did; she hates to waste food 🙂
