How to Peel an Avocado Without Breaking a Sweat

Step 1. Wash Your Avocados

Give your avocado a good wash either by hand or using a brush. This washes away any excess soil, and consequently, any bacteria (like E. coli) situated on the fruit’s surface.

This is especially important if you bought them fresh instead of pre-packaged.

Step 2. Slice in Half

On a cutting board, tart slicing around the middle part until you cut the avocado in half.  Give it a little twist when breaking it apart and you will have a nicely cut avocado.
