Discover how to ripen an avocado in 10 minutes… or 30 seconds!

Instructions: Wrap your avocado in aluminum foil and place it on a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 100°C for about 10 minutes (depending on how hard the animal is).

Remove the avocado from the oven, let it cool and then unwrap it. If all goes well, it will be perfectly ripe, firm and slightly creamy. For the short scientific explanation: the aluminum foil helps to trap the ethylene gas produced by the avocado and responsible for ripening.
