How To Keep An Avocado Fresh

3 easy steps for preserving your unfinished avocado

We’ve all sliced up a delicious avocado only to use half, or less, and then we’re left with the task of conserving the remainder.

I have a five-acre avocado farm in Kona and lived there before turning the property into a vacation rental. We picked up a few tricks to conserving the delicious berry we all call the avocado.

Lucky for you, this is simple.

Step 1: Keep the pit in the center of any unused avocado

Step 2: Do not remove the "mudd" (that little brown piece) at the end of the avocado

Step 3: Place saran wrap over the avocado or place the avocado in a bag. If you place it in a bag, make sure to remove as much air from the container as possible.

Easy as that.
