How to choose an avocado.
We are fairly spoiled in San Diego when it comes to having access to avocados year round. Even still, there is the ever-present frustration of determining when an avocado is at its peak ripeness. Our tip this month is will hopefully alleviate some of the mystery! Check under the stem to see what color is revealed. If it is green, the avocado is ripe. If it is brown, the avocado is most likely past its prime and has brown spots on the interior. If the stem is not easily removed, it is not ripe yet and needs more time before usage.
