You have guests coming for dinner and your making Guacamole but your avocados are hard, WHAT TO DO ?

Other than worrying that "hard avocados" gives you a freudian flash do the following:

  • Cut in half the avocado as usual, remove the seed.

  • Peel the avocado as close to the dark green as much as possible, leave no husk.

  • Cut the avocado halves into 16ths.16 is VERY IMPORTANT.


  • Put in a small bowl with just enough VERY HOT boiling water to cover the avocados.

  • Cover with Cellophane tightly.

  • Put a plate on top or something to keep out the light.

  • Place somewhere warm (next to the dishwasher or water heater)

  • Wait 20 mins.

  • Drain and mash.

    Addenum

  • Go and buy a soft avocado and mash it.


Et viola your avocado is softened for making guacamole !

Bon appetit
