Avocado (fruit). Simple Avocado Recipes

Avocado - pretty exotic fruit. It has become widespread in Russian stores quite recently. Despite the fact that this fruit is specifically classified as a fruit, almost no one can eat avocado directly, without salads or other recipes: it has a very specific oily taste that few people like. Nevertheless, this fruit is indispensable when preparing salads - both meat, fruit and vegetable.

Avocado is practically the perfect foundation for salad - it does not have a pronounced taste and is something of a connecting link between the other components of the salad. In fruit recipes Avocado plays the role of a “softness softener” - it makes the salad less cloying. In meat, on the contrary, it adds freshness and light fruity sweets.

Avocado came to us from Mexico - there it is actively used in the preparation of not only salads, but also many other dishes. We borrowed several traditional mexican recipes and supplemented them with some others, more familiar to Russians.

Avocado salad is perfect not only for exotic lovers, but also for conservatives. With this fruit you can prepare quite familiar salads - for example, Olivier - you just need to replace one of the ingredients with this fruit. As a rule, avocados are used to replace any meat ingredient– boiled chicken breast, sausage, and so on. Thus, it is possible from traditional meat salad make a vegetarian version without losing any of the flavor. However, avocado goes well with meat and seafood, so it is actively used when preparing dishes with fish, chicken, and turkey.

In this article we will talk about how to properly prepare avocado salad and provide several simple and incredibly tasty recipes.

How to make avocado salad

Not everyone in our country is closely familiar with avocados, and therefore before preparing the salad you should pay attention to a few important points. First of all, evaluate the quality of the fruit. It should be ripe, which means heavy, but firm to the touch. Moreover, if you press on the fruit, a dent should remain on its surface.

If you cut ripe avocado, under the skin can be found aromatic pulp, with a delicate, creamy consistency. Avocado has a creamy taste, with a subtle nutty note. Don't buy overripe avocados. The fruit is too soft and has a loose consistency and is completely unsuitable for making salads. In addition, when purchasing a soft fruit, you risk buying a spoiled avocado.

You can buy unripe fruit with hard, whitish flesh, the bite of which resembles a pear or pumpkin. Like bananas, avocados ripen at home in literally 1-2 days. But store ripe fruits more than 4 days is not allowed, as they quickly darken and deteriorate.

If we talk directly about preparing salads, the Florida or California variety of avocado is ideal for this purpose - a dark green pear-shaped fruit. To use it, the “alligator pear” is peeled and pitted, and the flesh is cut into cubes. Another cutting option is also possible, in which the fruit is cut into two halves, the pit is removed, and then the pulp is scraped out with a spoon.

Remember that avocado used for salad should not be heat treated. Otherwise, the pulp will begin to taste bitter. In addition, such a salad should be prepared immediately before consumption, before the fruit oxidizes. In this regard, for such salads it is worth choosing chemically inert dishes. And to preserve the color of the fruit, immediately after cutting you should sprinkle the pulp lemon juice or lime juice.

Let's also talk about combining avocados with other products. Considering the taste is not the most pronounced, “alligator pear” goes harmoniously with cucumbers, tomatoes, fish and seafood. In this regard, you can prepare an everyday salad from avocado and crab sticks, or you can create holiday dish based on tuna and avocado.

In addition, avocado perfectly complements the taste of caviar, cheese, chicken or other fruits, which means it can be used both for preparing desserts and for creating complex culinary masterpieces.
