How to choose and cut avocados

1. How to choose

1. Touch the appearance: If you want to choose a ripe avocado, you can touch it with your hands. Choose the ones with bumpy surfaces and small bumps, which make them look fresher. If the surface is too smooth, it may be infected with a disease, which is not good.

2. Look at the skin: A good avocado can be identified from the skin. The raw ones are bright green, and the color will be darker when they are mature, and the overall color is dark green. Therefore, when choosing, you should choose those with dark color, which means they are ripe and will naturally taste better.

3. Feel: Some avocados are very hard, and some are very soft. If it is hard, it means it is still raw and will taste astringent. If it is too soft, it means it has been stored for too long and is not very fresh. Therefore, you should choose one that is neither hard nor soft, as it tastes better and is fresher.

2. How to cut

When cutting an avocado, make a lengthwise cut first, and stop when you hit the pit. Then run the knife around the fruit and cut all around. After cutting, remove the core, peel the skin with a knife, cut the flesh into small cubes and place them in a fruit bowl. You can eat them by sticking them with a toothpick. Or eat it directly with a spoon.
