Avocado
Selection & Storage
Choose well-shaped fruit without any soft, black spots or cracks. Lightly press the avocado around the neck to test for ripeness. It should yield to slight pressure. Brown spots on the skin should not necessarily indicate affected quality. To ripen avos, place them in a brown paper bag with a banana or store them at room temperature for 3 to 5 days. Ripe fruit can be refrigerated but use as soon as possible. Use lemon juice to coat the fruit once it has been cut.
