Do you like avocados? Surely if I ask you what recipes come to your head when you think about what to prepare with an avocado, you can think of a lot, just in case we throw you a cable by looking at our recipes with avocado. Depending on the type of recipe we make, we will have to prepare the avocado in a different wayIf we make guacamole, it will appear crushed, for a tartar in taquitos, or for sushi in sticks, but in all cases, we have to peel and cut our avocado. Well, today we are going to learn how to do it easily.
When choosing an avocado, It is super important that if you are going to consume it on the same day, be at your point. For this, nothing better than asking your fruit bowl for advice. If you are going to take it in a couple of days, buy it something greener and harder, since this fruit ripens very quickly and we do not want it to pass us by.
We will start by holding the avocado with our hand, and with the help of a sharp knife that cuts well, we will pass it from the thickest part to the finest, cutting it in half in this way.
Once we have the avocado cut in two, in the middle and lengthwise, we will keep a half of avocado with bone and another half without it, with a hole that is where the avocado pit used to be. If you are only going to use one part, it is recommended that the part you save is the one with the bone, since this simple gesture, will help you not to rust. To keep it properly rub a lemon on the flesh of that avocado and cover it with plastic wrap. If when you go to consume it you see that the first layer is somewhat oxidized, remove it without problems.
To remove the pit without spoiling our avocado, it is very simple. You will only have to stick your knife in and twist slightly so that it comes off quickly. If you do not like to stain yourself when removing the pulp, you can help yourself with a soup spoon, if you do not mind staining your hands, I recommend that you remove the skin little by little with your hand, you will see that if the avocado is in its period, it will come off easily and smoothly.
Once we have all the skin separated, we can start cut the avocado in the shape we want. This way of peeling it is ideal for making sticks or thin strips. If on the contrary we want to make taquitosBefore peeling the avocado, once we have removed the bone, we mark with the knife all the vertical and horizontal lines that will be the avocado squares that we are going to make, and once we have them, we help ourselves with a spoon to separate them already cut from the skin.
