How To Select Avocados: Hold the avocado in your palm and gently squeeze – it should yield slightly to light pressure (not rock-hard or mushy). Another way is to flick off the small stem at the top. If it comes off easily and the flesh underneath is bright green, it’s ripe and ready. (Brown underneath = overripe; stem won’t budge = unripe.)
How To Speed Ripening: If your avocados aren’t quite ripe, store them in a paper bag with a banana to speed up ripening.
