The Original Tip. The original tip recommends completely wrapping an avocado with tinfoil, then placing it in a baking dish, and transferring it to a 200Â°F oven for 10 minutes, or until it softens. Avocados release ethylene gas, which ultimately promotes ripening.
How can I tell when my avocados are ripe? Avocados do not ripen on the tree, that is, they do not get soft while on the tree. Once you pick an avocado, it takes about 7 to 10 days for it to soften when left at room temperature. You can speed the process up slightly by placing the avocado in a bag with some other ripe fruit (like an apple) or slow the process down by keeping the fruit in the refrigerator.
