I finally know how to store avocado!!!!
Ok, I feel dumb for not thinking of this ever, but in one of my natural baby books it was talking about feeding babies avocado...anyway....
The directions were to PEEL the avocado (I did not know this could be done!). It was so easy...then rinse in cold water, and wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate. It has kept for 2 days so far!
I took a picture, but I don't feel like messing with cords and cameras. Next time I have it out, I will post a pic of my peeled avocado.
Ok, so probably everyone else in the world knew you could peel it, but me? I was always messing with slicing through the skin, then trying to cut a ring around the big seed and then scooping what I needed out of the ring of skin. hmmmmmppffff. Peeling is so much easier! It was so cool having a NAKED avocado!!!!
::)
so, yet another reason to make that guacamole salad.. aside from it being super delicious, it keeps very well.
Yes, yes, yes. I need to make that next week!
P is tired of grilled avocado sandwiches........."too rich" for him, the weenie.
I guess I'm finding I need to store them longer because I am using them as baby food, and he eats about 1/4 per meal (once or twice a day). Otherwise, they would be in my belly sooner!
I seriously did not ever peel one before. Always scooped and made a big mess.
I never really had luck with lemon juice or leaving in the pit either-still turned brown.
Maybe the rinsing in cold water helps before covering it. With this method they are lasting 3-4 days!
