How Do I Choose the Right Avocado?
Choosing the perfect avocado is key to getting that creamy, dreamy texture you want in your salsa. When you’re at the store, look for avocados that give just a little when you gently press them. You don’t want them too mushy, though! While some folks like to peel off the stem to check for ripeness, I find that using your fingers is a better bet. Ripe avocados typically have a darker, brownish skin, so keep an eye out for that. Remember, these beauties spoil quickly, so enjoy them at their peak ripeness!
How Do You Dice an Avocado for Salsa?
Ready to chop? Dicing avocados for your salsa is super simple! Start by slicing the avocado in half lengthwise and carefully removing the pit. Then scoop out the creamy flesh with a spoon. Next, take a sharp knife and score the avocado flesh in a crosshatch pattern while it’s still in the skin—just don’t cut through the skin itself! Finally, use a spoon to scoop out the diced avocado, and you’re all set to mix it into your salsa masterpiece!
How Do I Get the Most Juice Out of My Limes?
Want to squeeze every drop of lime juice for that zesty kick? Here’s a little trick: roll your limes firmly on the countertop before cutting them in half. This breaks down the fibers inside, making it way easier to extract all that juice. You can also grab a handheld juicer if you have one for even more efficiency!
