How to Remove the Stone from an Avocado

Ever wondered how to remove the stone from an avocado? Tired of spooning it out and either leaving the shell in the fruit or removing half the fruit. Well, you can remove the stone without any mess is two simple steps.


1. Halve the avocado

Firstly, take a large kitchen knife and half the avocado lengthways. You may need to gently lever the two halves apart but once complete it should look something like this:

Half the avocado and gently lever apart. 

2. Remove the stone

Now take the same large kitchen knife and, with a firm chopping motion, chop the stone in the centre so the knife stick in the stone. This should look something like this:

Chop the stone lightly with a shop kitchen knife

Now, holding the base of the avocado with one hand and the handle of the knife with the other simply twist both hands in opposite directions. The stone will then ease out from the flesh of the avocado.

That’s it! Removing the stone in two simple steps. I hope this has helped.

Until next time, and thanks for reading…Steve.

    Hello ,

    I saw your tweets and thought I will check your website. Have to say it looks really nice!
    I’m also interested in this topic + have recently started my journey as young entrepreneur.

    I’m also looking for the ways on how to promote my website. I have tried AdSense and Facebok Ads, however it is getting very expensive. Was thinking about starting using analytics. Do you recommend it?
    Can you recommend something what works best for you?

    I also want to improve SEO of my website. Would appreciate, if you can have a quick look at my website and give me an advice what I should improve: https://janzac.com/
    (Recently I have added a new page about Rockwall Investments and the way how normal people can make money with this company.)

    I wanted to subscribe to your newsletter, but I couldn’t find it. Do you have it?

    Hope to hear from you soon.

    P.S.
    Maybe I will add link to your website on my website and you will add link to my website on your website? It will improve SEO of our websites, right? What do you think?

    Regards
    Jan Zac

      Hi Jan Zac,

      Many thanks for the note. I’m intrigued. I know we are not connected on twitter so how did you see my tweets? Through my hash tags? I’ve been trying to expand on twitter so any advice would be great.

      Apologies but I can’t comment on analytics yet. I use it but only to see who is on line. My focus out present is to get a good number of quality posts out there and generate traffic. Then I’ll focus on the analytics.

      Regards the SEO, I have looked at your site but I’m no expert on this type of blog. What I would propose is adding the Yoast plugin if you have access. It’s free and the tutorials are great for learning about SEO and the plug helps this with a great traffic light system.

      Regards the newsletter, you should be able to subscribe half way down the home page. Please have a look and let me know.

      Finally, re links to other sites, many thanks for the offer but as we have quite different subject matters I think I’d like to leave it for now.

      Good luck and keep in touch,

      Steve.
