Boilerpipe Text	(upbeat techno music) [Female Narrator] Cutting an avocado. Pitting and cutting an avocado is easy if you know the correct way to do it. Start by cutting the avocado in half. For safety, hold it in a kitchen towel or rag, and use a large chef's knife to cut it length-wise all the way around. You'll feel when you've hit the pit, just cut around it. Next, twist the two halves in opposite directions to separate them. One side will be left with the pit. To remove the pit, hold that side in a kitchen towel and tap it with a knife to embed the blade into it. Twist the knife, and the pit should come right out. To get the pit off the knife, just grab the pit with the towel and pull it off. If you're not going to be eating the avocado right away, squeeze some lemon juice on it and spread it over the flesh to prevent browning. To get the flesh out, cut it in slices. Be careful to cut only through the flesh, not through the peel. Spoon out the slices. You could also just spoon out the half in one piece. Doesn't this avocado look tasty?

Readable Markdown	(upbeat techno music) \[Female Narrator\] Cutting an avocado. Pitting and cutting an avocado is easy if you know the correct way to do it. Start by cutting the avocado in half. For safety, hold it in a kitchen towel or rag, and use a large chef's knife to cut it length-wise all the way around. You'll feel when you've hit the pit, just cut around it. Next, twist the two halves in opposite directions to separate them. One side will be left with the pit. To remove the pit, hold that side in a kitchen towel and tap it with a knife to embed the blade into it. Twist the knife, and the pit should come right out. To get the pit off the knife, just grab the pit with the towel and pull it off. If you're not going to be eating the avocado right away, squeeze some lemon juice on it and spread it over the flesh to prevent browning. To get the flesh out, cut it in slices. Be careful to cut only through the flesh, not through the peel. Spoon out the slices. You could also just spoon out the half in one piece. Doesn't this avocado look tasty?
