4- Preserve avocados with a few drops of lemon
You probably already knew that lemon is an excellent ingredient to combine with avocado for its preservation. If you have already opened the avocado and want to save the pieces, you should brush them with a few drops of lemon, then place them in an airtight bag or container.
The citric acid contained in the lime protects the first layer of the avocado and prevents it from oxidizing or rotting. This will give you 2 days to consume it. Remember to always store avocados in the refrigerator and be careful not to put anything on top of them.
Last tip: to protect your avocado, always remember to keep the pit, when you cut it in half for example. By keeping the core in the remaining part, you can keep it for a few more days in the refrigerator. However, always choose to store it in the refrigerator in plastic wrap or in an airtight container.
