How about those beautifully fanned-out slices you get when you order avocado toast? And the neat avocado cubes that come in your salads and donburi rice bowls?\nIt‘s not as hard as it looks! I’ve put together a simple tutorial with detailed, step-by-step instructions and photos to teach you\nhow to cut an avocado\nlike a pro. With some techniques and a little practice, you can cut perfect avocado slices and cubes at home to use in your favorite recipes.\nHow To Cut an Avocado\nCut the avocado in half: \nInsert a sharp knife into a ripe avocado. Cut around the pit. Twist the two halves until they separate.\nRemove the pit:\n Gently hack into the pit with the heel of a chef’s knife (a paring knife is too small). Then, twist the knife in a counter direction to the avocado. The pit will come out easily.\nCut cubes:\n For dicing into cubes, leave the skin on. From the flat side, cut the exposed flesh with the tip of your knife. Scoop the cubes with a spoon.\nCut slices:\n Cut the avocado half into quarters or wedges. Peel the skin with your hand. Place the flesh on the cutting board, avocado cut-side down. Cut the avocado flesh into thin slices.\nStore any unused avocado: \nSqueeze fresh lemon juice or lime juice on the cut avocados. Place in an airtight container or wrap with plastic wrap. Then, store in the fridge.\nWays To Use Avocados\nOnce you prep your avocado, you can enjoy it in many delicious recipes!\nPoke Bowl\nand\nVegan Poke Bowl\nAvocado Toast\nNegitoro Avocado Donburi\nCalifornia Rolls\nDragon Rolls\nShrimp Broccoli Salad\nCook Mode\nPrevent your screen from going dark\n1\navocado\nTo Remove the Pit\nIn this simple tutorial, I‘ll show you how to cut an avocado into perfect slices and cubes. First, let‘s slice open\n1 avocado\n. Cut it in half lengthwise around the seed. To do so, I insert my knife through the skin and flesh until it meets the pit. Holding the knife in place, I rotate the avocado with my other hand so the knife slices all the way around the pit.\nNext, twist the two halves until they separate. To remove the pit, set the avocado half on the cutting board or hold it in your non-dominant hand; it‘s best to do so with a folded kitchen towel to protect your hand. Now, gently hack into the pit with the knife‘s heel to embed its edge. Then, twist the knife in a counter direction to the avocado. The pit will come out smoothly.\nTip:\nPlease be careful not to cut your hand! For your safety, do not use too much force with the knife.\nTo Cut Thin Slices\nTo cut thin slices, first cut the avocado into quarters. Peel off the skin with your hands.\nPlace an avocado quarter on the cutting board, flat side down. Carefully cut the delicate avocado flesh lengthwise into ¼-inch (6-mm) slices. (For some recipes, like\nDragon Roll\n, you will slice the flesh crosswise.) Set the slices aside and clean your hands and knife with a damp kitchen cloth before working on another quarter.\nTo Cut Cubes\nLeaving the skin on the avocado half, gently cut through just the flesh with the tip of the knife in a crosshatched pattern. Depending on the recipe and the avocado‘s size, I usually make 3–4 lengthwise cuts and 4–6 crosswise incisions. Scoop out the avocado cubes with a spoon.\nTo Serve\nThe avocado slices and cubes are now ready to use in your favorite sushi rolls, rice bowls, sandwiches, and salads! Use the slices in recipes like\nDragon Roll\n,\nCalifornia Roll\n,\nVegetarian Sushi Rolls\n,\nTemari Sushi\n,\nWanpaku Sandwich\n, and\n6 Japanese Twists on Avocado Toast\n. Avocado cubes are delicious in rice bowls like\nPoke Bowl\n,\nAvocado & Negitoro Donburi\n, and\nVegan Poke Bowl\n; try them in salads like\nSpring Mix Salad with Sweet Miso Dressing\nand\nSteak Salad with Shoyu Dressing\n, too.\nTo Store\nYou can squeeze some fresh lemon juice on the cut avocados to prevent them from turning brown.\nDid you make this recipe?\nTag\n@justonecookbook\non Instagram so we can see your delicious creation!","attrs_markdown":"Use of this website is subject to mandatory arbitration and other terms and conditions, select [this link](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/agreement-to-arbitrate\/) to read those agreements.\n\n[Skip to content](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/how-to-cut-an-avocado\/#body)\n\n[Subscribe to the newsletter](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/how-to-cut-an-avocado\/#subscribe-popup)\n\n- [Log in](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/joc-plus\/login\/)\n- [Go ad-free](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/joc-plus\/joc-plus-membership\/)\n\n[![Just One Cookbook](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/wp-content\/themes\/joc2025\/images\/logo.svg)](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/)\n\n- [Log in](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/joc-plus\/login\/)\n- [Go ad-free](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/joc-plus\/joc-plus-membership\/)\n\n- [Recipes](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/categories\/recipes\/)\n  -

First, let‘s slice open 1 avocado. Cut it in half lengthwise around the seed. To do so, I insert my knife through the skin and flesh until it meets the pit. Holding the knife in place, I rotate the avocado with my other hand so the knife slices all the way around the pit.\n  ![How to Cut Avocado 1](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/How-to-Cut-Avocado-1.jpg)\n- Next, twist the two halves until they separate. To remove the pit, set the avocado half on the cutting board or hold it in your non-dominant hand; it‘s best to do so with a folded kitchen towel to protect your hand. Now, gently hack into the pit with the knife‘s heel to embed its edge. Then, twist the knife in a counter direction to the avocado. The pit will come out smoothly. **Tip:** Please be careful not to cut your hand! For your safety, do not use too much force with the knife.\n  ![How to Cut Avocado 2](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/How-to-Cut-Avocado-2.jpg)\n\n#### To Cut Thin Slices\n- To cut thin slices, first cut the avocado into quarters. Peel off the skin with your hands.\n  ![How to Cut Avocado 3](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/How-to-Cut-Avocado-3.jpg)\n- Place an avocado quarter on the cutting board, flat side down. Carefully cut the delicate avocado flesh lengthwise into ¼-inch (6-mm) slices. (For some recipes, like [Dragon Roll](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/dragon-roll\/), you will slice the flesh crosswise.) Set the slices aside and clean your hands and knife with a damp kitchen cloth before working on another quarter.\n  ![How to Cut Avocado 4](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/How-to-Cut-Avocado-4.jpg)\n\n#### To Cut Cubes\n- Leaving the skin on the avocado half, gently cut through just the flesh with the tip of the knife in a crosshatched pattern. Depending on the recipe and the avocado‘s size, I usually make 3–4 lengthwise cuts and 4–6 crosswise incisions. Scoop out the avocado cubes with a spoon.\n  ![How to Cut Avocado 5](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/How-to-Cut-Avocado-5.jpg)\n\n#### To Serve\n- The avocado slices and cubes are now ready to use in your favorite sushi rolls, rice bowls, sandwiches, and salads! Use the slices in recipes like [Dragon Roll](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/dragon-roll\/), [California Roll](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/california-roll\/), [Vegetarian Sushi Rolls](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/vegetarian-sushi-rolls\/), [Temari Sushi](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/temari-sushi\/#wprm-recipe-container-59948), [Wanpaku Sandwich](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/wanpaku-sandwich\/), and [6 Japanese Twists on Avocado Toast](https:\/\/www.justonecookbook.com\/avocado-toast\/).

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark ### Ingredients - 1 avocado ### Instructions #### To Remove the Pit - In this simple tutorial, I‘ll show you how to cut an avocado into perfect slices and cubes. First, let‘s slice open 1 avocado. Cut it in half lengthwise around the seed. To do so, I insert my knife through the skin and flesh until it meets the pit. Holding the knife in place, I rotate the avocado with my other hand so the knife slices all the way around the pit. ![How to Cut Avocado 1](https://www.justonecookbook.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/How-to-Cut-Avocado-1.jpg) - Next, twist the two halves until they separate. To remove the pit, set the avocado half on the cutting board or hold it in your non-dominant hand; it‘s best to do so with a folded kitchen towel to protect your hand. Now, gently hack into the pit with the knife‘s heel to embed its edge. Then, twist the knife in a counter direction to the avocado. The pit will come out smoothly. Tip: Please be careful not to cut your hand! For your safety, do not use too much force with the knife. ![How to Cut Avocado 2](https://www.justonecookbook.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/How-to-Cut-Avocado-2.jpg) #### To Cut Thin Slices - To cut thin slices, first cut the avocado into quarters. Peel off the skin with your hands. ![How to Cut Avocado 3](https://www.justonecookbook.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/How-to-Cut-Avocado-3.jpg) - Place an avocado quarter on the cutting board, flat side down. Carefully cut the delicate avocado flesh lengthwise into ¼-inch (6-mm) slices. (For some recipes, like [Dragon Roll](https://www.justonecookbook.com/dragon-roll/), you will slice the flesh crosswise.) Set the slices aside and clean your hands and knife with a damp kitchen cloth before working on another quarter. ![How to Cut Avocado 4](https://www.justonecookbook.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/How-to-Cut-Avocado-4.jpg) #### To Cut Cubes - Leaving the skin on the avocado half, gently cut through just the flesh with the tip of the knife in a crosshatched pattern. Depending on the recipe and the avocado‘s size, I usually make 3–4 lengthwise cuts and 4–6 crosswise incisions. Scoop out the avocado cubes with a spoon. ![How to Cut Avocado 5](https://www.justonecookbook.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/How-to-Cut-Avocado-5.jpg) #### To Serve - The avocado slices and cubes are now ready to use in your favorite sushi rolls, rice bowls, sandwiches, and salads! Use the slices in recipes like [Dragon Roll](https://www.justonecookbook.com/dragon-roll/), [California Roll](https://www.justonecookbook.com/california-roll/), [Vegetarian Sushi Rolls](https://www.justonecookbook.com/vegetarian-sushi-rolls/), [Temari Sushi](https://www.justonecookbook.com/temari-sushi/#wprm-recipe-container-59948), [Wanpaku Sandwich](https://www.justonecookbook.com/wanpaku-sandwich/), and [6 Japanese Twists on Avocado Toast](https://www.justonecookbook.com/avocado-toast/).

Cut the avocado in half: Insert a sharp knife into a ripe avocado. Cut around the pit. Twist the two halves until they separate. 2. Remove the pit: Gently hack into the pit with the heel of a chef’s knife (a paring knife is too small). Then, twist the knife in a counter direction to the avocado. The pit will come out easily. 3. Cut cubes: For dicing into cubes, leave the skin on. From the flat side, cut the exposed flesh with the tip of your knife. Scoop the cubes with a spoon. 4. Cut slices: Cut the avocado half into quarters or wedges. Peel the skin with your hand. Place the flesh on the cutting board, avocado cut-side down. Cut the avocado flesh into thin slices. 5. Store any unused avocado: Squeeze fresh lemon juice or lime juice on the cut avocados. Place in an airtight container or wrap with plastic wrap.
