How do you naturally wash fruit?
You need to wash all your produce, even if it’s organic. You can wash your produce quickly using either of the methods below.
- Soak your produce in salt water for 20 minutes. You can use Himalayan pink salt or Redmond Real Salt is what I always have on hand. It needs to be about a 10% salt water solution and researchers have shown that is effective in removing common pesticide residues.
- Another option is to use 1 part vinegar to 4 parts water and allow it to soak for about 20 minutes. Keep an eye on softer fruits, such as berries, so they don’t become too soft.

How to make Honey Lime Fruit Salad
- Prepare your fruit. Wash the strawberries, blueberries, and grapes using one of the methods above and pat dry with a dish towel or paper towels.
- Remove skin from pineapple and kiwi and dice each fruit.
- Halve the strawberries and remove the stems.
- Combine all fruit in a large bowl.
- Make the dressing by using a citrus juicer to extract the lime juice and mix well with honey.
- Drizzle the dressing over the combined fruit.
- Serve and enjoy!
*I like to chill this salad for about 10 minutes prior to serving.
Can I use frozen fruit for this recipe?
I would discourage you from using frozen fruit for this recipe because you will find that frozen fruit can become mushy once thawed. You’ll be much happier taking the time to prepare this fruit salad with fresh fruit!
