How To Ripen an Avocado Fast

If you only have rock hard avocados, but need to use ripe ones for a recipe now, try this.

  1. Preheat oven to Broil on High.
  2. Puncture unripe avocado with a fork or knife several times.
  3. Take 2 unpeeled mini bananas (or 1 large banana) and wrap along with the avocado in aluminum foil.
  4. Place your foil bag to broil for 5-10 minutes until the avocado is softer to the touch, then keep in foil and refrigerate for 30 min.
  5. Voile!
