Avocados have achieved great popularity in recent years for their flavor, creaminess, and versatility in the kitchen. But if there is any drawback that this product has, it is its rapid maturation process. This fruit begins to ripen at its widest end and, after about a week, its pulp softens completely. Luckily, there are a series of tricks that will help you better preserve avocados that you do not plan to consume in the short term.

The popular TikTok chef, Maure (@by_maure) has shared among his more than 250,000 followers his best tips for storing those avocados that are hanging around your pantry.

Remember that, although these tricks can prolong the optimal state of an avocado, they are not applicable to long periods of time, since it is advisable, once opened, to eat it within 72 hours. That is why you should always check their appearance before consuming them to avoid poisoning.
