Notes
Cutting an avocado and keeping it green is all about technique and timing. Here’s how to master it:
- Cut Avocado: Slice around the pit and twist to open. Remove the pit with a spoon or knife.
- To keep the slices from browning, use fresh lime juice.
- Brush or sprinkle fresh lime juice over the cut surfaces. The acidity slows down oxidation, which causes browning.
- Store the cut avocado in an airtight container if not using immediately.
