Button When I was invited to Kitchen Stadium to compete on Iron Chef America, I had no idea my favourite snack food would be the secret ingredient. So naturally, when avocados were revealed and the battle began, I made my favourite snack, the same way I always make it at home but jazzed up with some creative flourishes. It's lightning fast and very flavorful, perfect when the clock is ticking and your judges are ready to taste.
To prep an avocado, follow these steps. Lay the avocado on your cutting board. Carefully slice lengthwise through the skin to the avocado's pit. Rotate the avocado, slicing all the way around the pit. Grasp each half and rotate them in opposite directions until one side releases. Set the piece with the pit on your cutting board. Using your largest, sharpest knife, firmly rap the pit with the blade. Twist until the pit pops out. Carefully slide a large spoon between the shell and the flesh, from one end to the other, easing out the flesh in one large piece.
