To decide if an avocado is ripe, look for an avocado that is dark green/black in color.It should be firm, but will yield slightly when you hold it in the palm of your hand and give it a gentle squeeze.If it feels mushy or leaves an indent when you press it, it is probably overripe.
If your avocados aren’t quite there yet, leave them on the counter until they’re fully ripe.Once ripe, store them in the refrigerator to keep them at their prime ripeness for a bit longer.Ingredients for Homemade Guacamole: Avocados– Make sure you are using good, ripe avocados that give slightly to pressure.
Tomatoes– We use Roma tomatoes.Limes– You will use the juice of 1 lime.Fresh is best, but bottled works in a pinch.
