From the California Avacado Commission:
Selecting Fresh Fruit
Ripening a California Avocado
Handling California AvocadosAs with any food preparation, begin by washing your hands in hot, soapy water and dry them with a clean paper towel. To avoid cross-contamination from raw meat, poultry or eggs, always disinfect your cutting surfaces and utensils. Thoroughly wash the fruit before you slice it.
Peeling a California AvocadoUse this simple three-step process (picture at top):
Or, watch as Chef Trey Foshee demonstrates his favorite way to cut and peel a California Avocado: Storing or Freezing California Avocados
Ripe fruit can be stored in the refrigerator uncut for two to three days. To store cut fruit, sprinkle it with lemon or lime juice or white vinegar and place in an air-tight container in your refrigerator. If refrigerated guacamole turns brown during storage, discard the top layer. When you have an abundance of fresh avocados, consider freezing them. Pureed avocados freeze very well and can be used in salads, sandwiches and dips.
