Avocados are delicious as long as they are ripe .
But we don't always know how to tell if an avocado is ripe or not, just by touch.
To tell the truth, this technique is not always effective.
Wondering how to choose a ripe avocado, but not too much?
Fortunately, my grandmother gave me her two very simple tricks to know if an avocado is good.
To buy a delicious ripe avocado for your recipes, just look at its stalk.
This is by far the most infallible solution to recognize a good lawyer!
By removing the avocado stalk (the part that normally connects the avocado and the branch), you'll get a glimpse of the inside.
So you will see the color of your avocado:
- either it is very clear: it may not be ripe enough... Test it to be sure. If it's soft, it'll be fine. If it is very hard, iron in a few days.
- either it is very green :He is perfect ! You can consume it.
- either it is black :uh... throw it away. Or, open it and see if there are still edible parts.
For some reason X or Y you don't want to remove the stem?
So you can always check by pressing your fingers on the base of the peduncle .
This technique is less immediately reliable, but it also works.
If the avocado is soft, you can go, but if it's very very soft, your avocado is too ripe, even rotten!
If, on the other hand, the surface is hard, wait a little longer, or make it mature more quickly with this trick.
There you go, you now know how to choose a good ripe avocado :-)
Opening an avocado (and especially eating it!) only to discover that it is not ripe is really not pleasant.
No more way to go wrong now! You'll never eat tough avocados again.
