Kwikhwalithi yokudla ehamba phambili, ukwatapheya kumele kube nokuqukethwe kawoyela okungenani amaphesenti ayi-10. Ukuhlolwa kokuvuthwa kwenziwa ngaphambi kokuqala kokuvuna. Ukuhlaziywa komswakama kwenziwa ngokusebenzisa imishini ekhethekile ebizwa ngokuthi amamitha omswakama noma ngokumisa amasampula kuhhavini noma kuhhavini we-microwave.

Uma kubanda kakhulu isitoreji nokushisa kwezokuhamba, kuhamba kancane inqubo yokuvuthwa, kepha ukunakekelwa kufanele kuthathwe ukuze kugwenywe ukulimala okubandayo. Ama-avocados asizini yokuqala afana neFuerte athambekele ikakhulukazi kulokhu. Ukulimala okulimazayo kungenzeka emazingeni okugcina okushisa angaphansi kuka-5°C futhi kubangele ukucwaswa kwangaphakathi kwenyama kube ngmpunga noma nsundu okunamabala amnyama akha esikhunjeni.
