How to choose a good avocado: tips from Evgeny Klopotenko  

  • The ripeness of the avocado is very easy to check – - says the cook. – You need to press the fruit slightly and if you feel that it lends itself to your pressing, you can already eat it.
  • Another sign of a ripe avocado is the tail that remains from the stalk.
  • – If the tail separates easily, then the fruit is ripe, if it is bad – not yet, - says Eugene. – If the tail has already fallen off, then the fruit has ripened, and it is better not to use it.
