Final Touches: Once your avocado feels just right, cut it open, discard the pit, and enjoy your creamy, soft avocado in salads, on toast, or as a healthy dip!

Tip: This microwave method is best used when you need ripe avocado in a hurry. If you have a bit more time, placing the avocado in a paper bag with an apple or banana at room temperature for a day or two can naturally speed up the ripening process, thanks to the ethylene gas released by the fruits.

So, the next time you’re caught with an unripe avocado and a craving that just can’t wait, turn to your trusty microwave. It’s a quick, easy, and effective way to enjoy your favorite green treat anytime!
