I've been learning a few things on Rouxbe.com but sometimes it's the littlest things that make the biggest impression. While perusing their tips area, I came across a video on how to dice an avocado. It seemed a silly tip, how many different ways could their be to dice an avocado? I have never been more wrong.
After watching this video I have used this tip three times already and it is a huge timesaver. If you love diced avocado on your salad, watch this and save yourself some time making your lunch.

Ha! I have been doing it this way for years, but I have been using my chef's knife for the whole operation. I never once thought of using a butter knife for the dicing part....which makes a ton of sense safety-wise!

It does! I know my boyfriend sighed in relief when he saw me attacking avocados with a butter knife. He says that me with a knife is just scary :-P
