Description
How to choose an avocado: The color and firmness of an avocado directly depend on its ripeness. If the avocado is green and hard, it is not yet ripe, but when it becomes softer and takes on a dark green or brown hue, it is ripe. Inside, a ripe avocado should also not be hard; it should have a creamy texture, but this texture should not be dark—this indicates that the fruit is overripe. How to store avocados: Placing an avocado in the refrigerator will mean certain death for it. An unripe fruit will never ripen in the fridge, so only use refrigerators if you want to preserve an already ripe fruit. How to peel an avocado: To peel an avocado, make a cut around the middle, then remove the pit. A ripe avocado will come out easily. Next, you can carefully scoop the flesh out of the skin with a spoon, and then cut it for salads or mash it. You can also make several cuts on the half of the avocado from top to bottom through the flesh, avoiding the skin, and then gently lift the pieces with a knife to get sliced fruit. Another option for peeling an avocado is to peel it like a potato. However, the skin of the avocado is quite tough, and the fruit is soft when ripe, so peeling it this way may risk bruising the fruit.
