There is a fruit that has been rated as the most nutritious fruit by the Guinness Book of World Records, but at the same time, it is also the most controversial fruit. What do you think Tender Eater is talking about durian? Of course not, but speaking of which, it is more or less a fellow durian, as well as from the tropics.
It's the avocado.
Avocado is an emerging fruit in the tropical subtropics because of its appearance like a pear, also known as avocado, avocado, and kuai. Because of its high oil content, tropical Americans eat it as food, and it is known as "forest butter".
Since the discovery of avocado in tropical America, with the expansion of American immigrants, it has been brought to the American market, and because of its super high nutritional value, it has been loved by more and more Americans and has become a common ingredient in American supermarkets. Not only does it shine in the United States, but it has also been introduced to Japan by the Japanese in the United States as an ingredient in Japanese cuisine, such as improved Japanese dishes such as California rolls added to sushi.
With the rise of fitness and the promotion of social networks, the efficacy of avocados is known to more and more Chinese.
Avocados are rich in vitamin E and vitamin D, with extremely low sugar content, high potassium content, particularly rich fiber, strong antioxidant properties, and are high-energy and low-sugar fruits. Its pulp has an oil content of 8 to 29%, although the avocado fat is high, but it is all good fat, in the rich fat, unsaturated fatty acid content of up to 80%.
The pulp of the avocado is also very similar to the natural sebaceous membrane structure of the skin, which is easily absorbed by the skin, and can be eaten to fight aging, prevent stains, and improve skin elasticity.
Such a powerful fruit, of course, will make people want to try. In recent years, it has slowly entered the Chinese market, and many large supermarkets can see its figure. However, although the avocado is a magically advertised internet celebrity fruit, it does not mean that its taste can be accepted by most people.
For avocados, people who love to eat and those who don't love to eat will feel completely different.
People who are not used to eating find avocados so unpalatable that they are infuriating. They will be amazed, how can the avocado be considered a fruit? The fruit must at least have "water", but its flesh is not watery, and it does not have the sweet and sour feeling of the fruit.
But people who like to eat it find its soft taste very delicious.
In fact, eating avocados must pick the right timing. The avocado is very hard when it is not yet ripe, and such avocados are indeed not good to eat. However, when the avocado is matured for a long time, its taste changes dramatically. The flesh of the ripe avocado is slightly soft, can be dug up with a spoon, and is soft and creamy to eat, similar to salmon and tuna belly meat.
The avocado itself is not very flavorful, but as long as the avocado is combined with other ingredients, the taste is instantly rich and full. If you don't believe what tender food says, try the following combinations, maybe you will find the delicious side of the avocado.
Because the skin of the avocado is very hard, many people who will not open the shell have spent a lot of effort, but they have a bunch of thin flesh, which is really unbearable, and they are eager to beat it into the cold palace from now on.
Therefore, before learning the avocado collocation, let's first learn how to open the avocado.
How to open the shell:
1. After removing the stem, cut the avocado into two along the core, then twist the avocado and remove half of the flesh.
2. Then, use a knife to cut the core obliquely, so that the knife slightly cut into the core. Gently tilt the core upwards, slowly separate it from the pulp, and then use a wooden spoon to scoop it off the knife.
After the pulp is pitted, we can use a spoon to dig and eat, remember to put a spoonful of white sugar or sprinkle some black pepper to taste Oh, use the spoon directly mix well.
When eaten directly, you can also cut into pieces and strips and eat it in the Japanese way. Cut the pulp into slices of 0.5 cm to 1 cm, dip it in Japanese soy sauce, and add some mustard to heavy tasters.
Adding avocados to the staple food can solve the problem of eating alone.
Love rice, just make avocado bibimbap, cut the avocado into cubes or slices, spread on the hot rice, and then put on the hot spring eggs or your favorite meat, salmon is the best, and finally drizzle some Japanese soy sauce, stir while hot, think it is very delicious.
Want to eat Western food? Then make an egg avocado sandwich. After cutting the avocado, cutting into slices and spreading them on toast slices, they are served with other vegetables and meat to make a sandwich, which is balanced and simple. It can also be scooped up with a small spoon, and when the jam is spread, spread evenly on the toast slices, plus the side dishes, it is just as delicious.

1. You can use the feeling of pressing or pinching the fruit with your hand to judge the ripeness of the avocado. If it is very hard to press and cannot be pinched at all, it means that it is not mature. Unripe can also be bought, but it needs to be left for a few days, and ripe apples or ripe bananas can be used to ripen.
2. If the avocado feels soft and hard, it can feel a little bit moving, which is the most suitable state for eating. If it is very soft to press, it means that the pulp is rotten, so don't buy it.
3. Avocados without dark spots are in optimal condition.
4. Cut the navel of the avocado down to observe the color of the avocado part, if it is too dark brown, it means that the avocado is too ripe, if the color is bright green, the ripeness is just right.
5. Avocados must be eaten fresh when eating, otherwise they will soon oxidize and turn yellow.
6. Please put the refrigerator in the refrigerator to delay the ripening time.
