Selection and storage

How to buy

When choosing pluots and apriums select fruit that is plump and firm. Avoid pluots that are green, blemished, or have broken skin.

How to store

Pluots and apriums should be ripened at room temperature and then refrigerated. Pluots can be ripened more quickly in a brown paper bag at room temperature.


Preparation and eating

Fruit should be washed well and dried before consumption. To remove pit, cut the fruit in half. Pluots and apriums can be eaten fresh or cooked. The pluot is great in sauces or sliced fresh on a salad.
