Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Have you ever wondered what the best way is to ripen an avocado? In this video, Julia tries a number of different techniques from across the web to find out which ones work, which ones don't and which one is the best. If you like our videos it really helps us if you like/comment/subscribe.
Avocados never seem to be ripe when you need them. Today, I've got 5 really green avocados and am going to find out the fastest way to ripen them. First, I'm going to place an avocado in a windowsill. Second, I'm placing an avocado in a brown paper bag with an apple and banana, then placing it on a windowsill. Third, I'm placing an avocado in a paper bag with a 1/2 cup of flower, then on a windowsill. Fourth, I'm wrapping an avocado in tinfoil and heating it up in an oven. Fifth, I'm wrapping an avocado in tinfoil and heating it up with a hairdryer. Which one will work and which one will fail? Watch to find out.

    groceries can't do it because they get avocado in very different conditions, mostly unripe. Why? Because it is necessary condition for transportation.

    Avocados do not ripen even after staying on the tree for 18 months as long as they are attached to the tree stalk. I think that is the reason why its so difficult to find ripe avocados. All the ripe ones that we find are ripened during transportation or in stores

    I have several avocado trees, this time of year we get a lot of them, but they take ages to ripe. What I found to work is rather simple, and quite fast. 1) Cut avocado in half ( 2 pieces). 2) Wrap each half in several layers of saran wrap, make sure it's water tight. 3) Put both (half) pieces into the microwave, microwave them for 2 minutes standard power. 4) Put the avocado, still wrapped, into a bowl of cold, even ice, water. Let sit, than enjoy! Takes less than 5 mins.

    Wrap them in a plastic/paper bag, put that bag in a bowl, and put that bowl in a place that gets no sunlight, like a cupboard. Two nights, and mine went from green and hard to ripe and ready. Also, when you’re pressing an avocado to see whether it’s soft, press near the top so you’re not squishing the nice part

(of course not as yummy as usual but i dont have high expectation :))) Try bake it at low heat, 100-105*C for 15-45 minute (after 15 minute, check it whether it'll need more time).

    I know, right?!?! I put one avocado out on it's own and it would have been perfectly ripe in 5 days (they were REALLY green) but it was still lovely to eat after 4. It seemed like both methods with the paper bags helped shave a day off the ripening time, but it was no 'miracle hack' that's for sure. Someone has mentioned putting an avocado in a plastic bag, so maybe I'll give that a try next. Thanks for your comment :)

    I can usually find ripe avocados at the store but today all I found were green hard underripe ones. I’ve been searching for something that works less than a day. Everything (besides cooking them) takes way longer. On a hunch I left the avocados in the plastic bag you put them in for purchase at the store and set it outside in the sun. Twisted bag closed. It’s high 80s here today. After several hours they are nice and soft. Making guacamole tonight. Glad I tried my own theory.

    Try modifying your flour method. Put a much larger amount of flour in a plastic container. Next, put the avocado in the flour, totally imbedding the avocado, totally surrounded by the flour. The totally hard avocado might totally ripen in 24 hours. Your paper bag method does have enough flour to totally surround the avocado with the flour.

    The best way is to put in brown paper bag without anything added, and leave it for 3-4 days. Doesn't matter where you put the bag. It works for me evertime

    The avocados from our tree take 5 to 6 days to ripen & they are large avocados unlike the small green ones you can buy in market & heavy in weight. Taste like butter almost with a bit of sweetness and taste like an avocado should, yummy! I wish you folks could try them, you would absolutely love them.

    Peggy Pirtle we would love to try yours. What climate do you live in. We also would love to grow our own. We get hot weather May thru Sept but have a good 3 months of freezing weather that I don’t think they would like.

    You can also put the same ratio of an unripe bananas 2 avocados in a plastic grocery bag the same ones you put your tomatoes or onions in, close it tightly and leave out on ur counter 4 a day and when you see the condensation in the clear grocery bag your avocado should be tender and your banana should be ripened as well. You should be able to squeeze the avocado to see if it has softened before opening the bag if not let sit another day! I hope it works for you like it has for me...

    I have been eating an avocado a day for years. I usually buy several at a time and set them out to ripen. I have come to realize I just need to plan on ripening them for up to five days. (Depending on their condition) Putting them in a dark cub bard or refrigerator seems to speed up the process a little bit.

    When I place mine in the Fridge here on the West Coast (they’re CA Avocados thick skinned darker color) it slows down the ripening. I put one in my Vegetable Crisper Bin next to 2 Apples. I just did this (I got a whole bag of hard Avocados from Costco) and I will see what happens in the fridge in the bins no bags involved but placed between 2 apples. Experimenting is fun😄

    Hello, You can easily ripen an avocado by putting it into uncooked rice for a few days or can use a brown paper bag to ripen in a few days should be perfect! I always let the avocados I pick from our tree ripen by itself on kitchen counter top with no direct sun and in about 3 to 4 days the avocados are rip. I like eating avocados on the firm side vs soft, hate soft avocados!
