Recipe Notes

How to Select and Store Avocados

Here's some tips to help you select the perfect avocados:

  • First, try to find 3 or 4 avocados that are at different stages of ripeness.
  • If you gently press near the stem end (the skinnier end) and it bounces back, that is perfect!
  • Buy 2 that are slightly harder than that one and maybe 1 that is a little softer. Of course, eat the softer ones first!

Store them in the fridge to keep them from ripening too fast. They'll keep for a week or more. Don't forget, you can also freeze them! Be sure to remove the pit and place in a sealed bag. They will last 3-6 months in the freezer.
