QuestionHow do you ripen an avocado in one day?Community AnswerPut the avocado in a bag, either paper or plastic, along with a ripe banana or apple. As the apple or banana ripens, they give off a gas which causes other fruits around them to ripen more quickly as well. If the avocados are very unripe, it may take two days, but the ripe banana or apple trick will speed up the ripening process considerably, and should do the trick in a day or two.
