Storage advice

A ripe avocado can be kept out of the refrigerator for about two days. Unripe avocados are ripe after a few days at room temperature. Do not store avocados in the refrigerator.

Do you want to accelerate the ripening of avocado? Put this fruit together with an apple, pear or banana in a plastic bag. These fruits give off ethylene gas and this promotes the ripening of the avocado.

Application

The avocado is best eaten raw.

Preparation

First cut the avocado in half, then remove the pit and scoop the flesh from the skin. You can also cut the pulp into cubes or slices.

Tip: Sprinkle the flesh of the avocado with lemon juice to prevent the flesh from turning brown.
