¿Si los aguacates no estan maduros?

Cimg5014






Ever get an avocado that was green and had no chance to mature? Old wives tales tell you to wrap them in newspaper or even in a bag with a tomato or whatever else those old wife tales  suggest! Fear no more friends, because my incredible Sous-chef again saved the day! One day he started stuffing the hard stone fruit into our bin of rice, as I quizzically looked on, "What the hell are you doing?" I chimed in disbelief! "Primo", he croaked in a joking voice and his Vicente way, he explained that this was the way to make them soft and delicious. I tried rebutting his claim and told him we could send these rocks back to my purveyor in the morning; he just chuckled as I called in for some more avocados on the following mornings delivery! What do you know, when I looked in on the green orbs they were no longer that green hard fruit, rather they were verging on ripe, unbelievable! Later I asked him how he learned that trick, " I'm Dominican primo!", he said , with obvious pride!

No shit, it works!
