Unripe avocados: It is best to store unripe avocados in a cool, dark place, like a benchtop or in the pantry. While they are unripe, do not refrigerate. On the benchtop, your unripe avocado can take 3-7 days to ripen. You can tell your avocado is ripe because it should yield gently to pressure when you squeeze it, but not be squishy.
