AVOCADO CREAM

How to buy avocado?

When buying an avocado check that:

• the stalk protects the fruit pulp from external agents
• the peel has no dents
• the fruit is soft to the touch, but not too soft.

If the avocado is not ripe, there is no problem because it will continue to ripen once harvested.

Maybe put it in a paper bag with apples and in a short time it will be perfect.

If it is too soft, but still a nice green-yellow color inside then use it to prepare creams or smoothies.

If it is dark, unfortunately, all you can do is throw it away.
