WELCOME TO YOUR NEW OBSESSION. THE AVOCADO IS A NUTRIENT-DENSE FRUIT BELOVED AROUND THE WORLD FOR ITS CREAMY FLAVOR AND TEXTURE. IT HAS DARK GREEN SKIN WHEN IT'S RIPE AND DELICIOUS, AND YELLOW-GREEN GOODNESS INSIDE. IT'S BEEN A MUST-HAVE FOR GUACAMOLE FOR CENTURIES, BUT THESE DAYS IT’S AN ESSENTIAL FOR JUST ABOUT ANYTHING INVOLVING GOOD TIMES. WHAT IS AN AVOCADO? Although you’re probably most accustomed to eating avocados in savory dishes, they are, in fact, a fruit. Botanically, these versatile fruits are a type of berry with one large seed. The avocado fruit grows on the Persea Americana – also known as the avocado tree. This flowering tree is native to South Central Mexico and is a member of the plant family named Lauraceae. The tree now grows successfully in tropical climates across the globe. The avocado, which is also often referred to as the alligator pear, is an integral ingredient in many cuisines – from Mexican to Japanese and almost everywhere in between. Popular ways to showcase the avocado’s mild and creamy flesh include the delicious Mexican dip guacamole, salads, sushi, on toast, and in chilled milkshake-style drinks that are common throughout Southeast Asia. PHYSICAL TRAITS OF THE AVOCADO The avocado is a medium-sized fruit with bright green to green-black and even purple bumpy skin, and soft, pale green flesh. In the center of the fruit is a large, smooth, brown seed. Avocados come in a variety of shapes and sizes: there are big ones, little ones, pear-shaped ones, egg-shaped ones, and even spherical ones. AVOCADO SKIN The skin of the avocado is unlike that of other fruits and vegetables. Most varieties of avocados have a bumpy, pebble-textured skin with a glossy, almost leather-like finish. The color of the skin ranges from bright green to an almost black-purple hue. THE SKIN’S COLOR CHANGES THROUGH THE RIPENING PROCESS: * An unripe avocado is a bright yellow-green color. * Depending on the variety, a ripe avocado is usually a deep green color. * An overripe avocado is a very deep green, almost black-purple color. As well as firmness, the color of an avocado is a good indicator of ripeness. If you’re curious, check out how you can slow the ripening of avocados. Like some other fruits, such as bananas, the skin of an avocado is not generally eaten. That being said, don’t throw away avocado skin without first scraping off the dark green flesh from the inside. The part of the fruit directly underneath the skin contains the highest concentration of antioxidants found in the avocado, including phytosterols such as beta-sitosterol. Avocados contain 38 milligrams of beta-sitosterol per 50 g serving. Beta-sitosterol is one of the three predominant phytosterols found in plants. These compounds may help maintain healthy cholesterol levels. Phytosterols are plant sterols naturally found in plants that are molecularly similar to animal cholesterol. In the intestine, research has shown they can act to lower the absorption of cholesterol. According to the FDA, 2 grams of phytosterols per day may help maintain healthy cholesterol levels. Some at-home beauty enthusiasts even claim that rubbing the inside of an avocado peel over your face makes for a wonderful, nourishing face mask! AVOCADO FLESH There’s no denying – avocados are absolutely delicious. The pale green to yellow-green fruit has a distinctive creamy, oily, and balmy texture that cuts easily, and can be spread or mushed into a dip-like consistency. Avocados have a mild taste, with a hint of sweetness. If you have never tried an avocado before, imagine the taste of a fresh, rich, velvety butter substitute produced by trees. THE AVOCADO SEED In the center of it all, avocados have a large, golf-ball sized seed that makes up roughly 10% to 25% of the fruit’s total weight. The seed is spherical in shape, chestnut to dark brown in color, and has a smooth, shiny texture. Unlike other berries, the avocado has just one seed. Like the skin, avocado seeds are not usually eaten. Some avocado enthusiasts crush the seed into a coarse powder and brew it into a bitter tea. Others run the seed through a juicer or add it to smoothies (however, a warning is necessary to take proper precautions before you try that at home). Although the seed does contain nutrients, it is not necessary to eat it to get the full health benefits of avocados. While you may not want to eat the seed, don’t go throwing it out just yet. There are several ways you can make full use of the avocado seed, including: * Make a natural, pink-colored dye. * Dry the seed, grind it up, and use it in a DIY facemask. The finely ground seed particles work wonders as a natural exfoliator. * Keep your guacamole looking fresh. Some claim that if you add the whole seed to your guacamole, it won’t turn brown. One of the most popular ways to make the most of your avocado seed is to sprout it and grow your own avocado tree. This is a fun and easy process anyone can try – even if you lack the elusive green thumb. HOW TO SPROUT AN AVOCADO SEED – 6 EASY STEPS 1. Remove your avocado seed and clean off any excess fruit. If you’re having trouble cleaning the seed, try soaking it in some water for a couple of minutes before scrubbing any remaining flesh off. Be careful not to remove the thin, brown skin. This is the seed cover. 2. Determine which end of the seed is the top, and which is the bottom. Although the seed is ball-shaped, one end will be a little pointy, and the other will be a little flat. The flattest side is the bottom where the taproots will emerge, so it will need to touch the water. 3. Take four toothpicks and insert them around the circumference of the avocado seed. These will act as a type of scaffolding, allowing the bottom of the seed to rest in the water, while the top stays dry. 4. Position the avocado seed over a glass or jar of water, so the bottom half of the seed is submerged. Opt for a clear glass if possible, so you can watch as the seed sprouts into the water. 5. Now you can sit back and wait for your seed to sprout. Over time, the top of the seed will dry out and form a crack. Then, as the crack moves to the bottom of the seed, the seed cover will come off. From the crack, a small taproot will emerge. The taproot will continue to grow down and may branch. Eventually, a sprout will grow out of the top. This process can take anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks. 6. When your sprout is about 6 inches tall, you can plant it in your garden or in a pot. NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS OF THE AVOCADO Avocados are nutritional powerhouses – that’s why so many people refer to them as super-foods! Incorporating avocados into your regular diet can have astounding benefits to your health and well-being. For example, avocados are virtually the only healthy fruit with good fats and are a delicious way to help people meet the Nutrition and Your Health: Dietary Guidelines for Americans’ recommendations to shift from eating saturated fat to good fats. Amazingly, avocados contain nearly twenty vitamins and minerals. Avocados are a good source of pantothenic acid, a B-vitamin that helps the body convert food to energy. Avocados provide 14% of the DV per 50 g serving. They’re also considered a good source for nutrients like vitamin K and fiber. Vitamin K, a nutrient that the body needs to stay healthy, is important for blood clotting and healthy bones and also has other functions in the body. One 50 g serving of avocado provides 10% of the DV for vitamin K. What’s more, diets rich in healthy foods containing fiber, such as some vegetables and fruits, may reduce the risk of heart disease, obesity, and type 2 diabetes. Healthy avocados are a good source of fiber (3 g per 50 g serving) and are a great fresh fruit option to help boost fiber intake. In addition, the avocado is a source of the following vitamins and minerals: * Copper (10% DV, 0.1 mg) * Vitamin K (10% DV, 11 mg) * Pantothenic acid (14% DV, 0.7 mg) * Folate (10% DV, 400 mcg) Finally, one serving (1/3 of a medium avocado) contains small amounts of vitamin A (4 mg), magnesium (0.1 mg), vitamin C (4 mg), vitamin E (1 mg), iron (0.3 mg), manganese (0.1 mg), zinc (0.3%), potassium (254 mg) and phosphorous (27 mg). As well as these vitamins and minerals, avocados are known for their "Good" fats. In the recommended 1/3 of a medium avocado serving (50g), about 75 per cent of an avocado’s fat content comes from mono and polyunsaturated fat – that’s 6 grams per 50 gram (approximately one third of an avocado) serving. Dietary fats are a type of nutrient that can help with the absorption of fat-soluble nutrients, including vitamins E, K, D, and A. The Nutrition and Your Health: Dietary Guidelines for Americans emphasize making small dietary shifts to achieve an overall healthy eating pattern, such as replacing foods higher in saturated fats with healthy foods containing good fats, like avocados. THE AVOCADO TREE The avocado fruit grows on a large, subtropical tree known as Persea Americana. This species grows up to 66 feet high and features medium (between 4.7 and 9.8 inches long), sturdy, deep green leaves, and small, greenish-yellow flowers. The avocado tree grows out into a wide, bushy plant with a light brown trunk. Persea Americana is a subtropical plant species that requires a warm, humid climate with minimal wind. The avocado tree is not naturally tolerant of frost. When even mild frost occurs, the tree tends to prematurely drop its fruit. Some species, including Hass, can survive temperatures of 30 degrees Fahrenheit and less. In addition to this subtropical climate, the avocado grows best in deep (preferably over 3 feet) of thoroughly aerated soil. Growing conditions for the avocado tree are ideal in many countries and regions across the globe, including Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Central America, Peru, the Caribbean, Venezuela, Ecuador, Puerto Rico, California, Arizona, Hawaii, Florida, Texas, Australia, New Zealand, Spain, Portugal, Crete, Morocco, Indonesia, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, Rwanda, and areas of Southern India. If you live in a subtropical climate, you may like to grow your own avocado tree. You can do this by purchasing a seedling or small tree, or by sprouting an avocado seed as we outlined above. COMMON TYPES OF AVOCADOS THERE ARE MANY CULTIVARS OF AVOCADOS USED FOR BOTH AT-HOME AND COMMERCIAL GROWING. HERE ARE A FEW OF THE MOST COMMON TYPES. HASS AVOCADOS You’ve probably heard of Hass avocados before. Hass is the most common cultivar – in fact, 80% of the world’s avocados are Hass. Hass avocados are popular due to their nutty taste, year-round availability, and long shelf life. Hass avocados have a distinctly pebbled skin that changes color from bright green to deep green and even black-purple as the avocado ripens. They have a rich flavor, creamy rather than watery texture, and feature a 19% oil constitution. All Hass avocados are descendants of one "mother tree" that was grown by a man named Rudolph Hass in La Habra Heights, California. The species was patented in 1935, and the "mother tree" survived an impressive 67 years after that before it was cut down in 2002 after dying of root rot. 9 INCREDIBLE BENEFITS OF EATING AVOCADOS Still not convinced that the avocado is a powerful super-food? Here are 9 proven benefits of eating avocados. 1. AVOCADO NUTRIENTS As we mentioned above, avocados provide vitamins and minerals that your body requires to keep you happy and healthy. One serving, 1/3 of a medium avocado, contains: * 10% of your recommended dietary allowance of vitamin K * 10% of your recommended dietary allowance of folate * 4% of your recommended dietary allowance of vitamin C * 6% of your recommended dietary allowance of potassium * And much more… What makes avocados even more nutritionally spectacular is their good fats, and zero cholesterol and sodium. 2. HEALTHY AVOCADOS ARE A SOURCE OF GOOD FATS Did you know healthy avocados contain 5g of monounsaturated fat and 1 g of polyunsaturated fat per 50 g serving (one-third of a medium avocado)? Over 75% of the fat in an avocado is unsaturated, making it a great substitute for foods high in saturated fats. Per the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, replacing saturated fats or trans fats with unsaturated fats can reduce bad cholesterol levels in the blood. 3. AVOCADOS HAVE POTASSIUM TOO Per the Nutrition and Your Health: Dietary Guidelines for Americans, while many adults consume sufficient amounts of nutrients, there are nutrients like potassium that are consumed in amounts below the Estimated Average Requirements. Potassium may blunt salt's effect on blood pressure as well as reduce the risk of developing kidney stones and possibly bone loss as we get older. One-third of a medium avocado provides 6% of the recommended daily value of potassium. Other food sources of potassium include white potatoes, beet greens, white beans, plain yogurt, and sweet potato, too. You’ve probably heard that bananas are a great source of potassium. One medium avocado contains 6%, 254 mg, of the recommended daily dietary allowance of potassium. One medium (7-7 7/8″) banana contains 12%, 422 mg, of potassium. 4. AVOCADOS ARE A GOOD SOURCE OF FIBER Fiber plays an important role in a balanced diet, particularly in relation to digestion. 1/3 of a medium avocado offers 3 grams of fiber. This is approximately 11% of your recommended daily value of fiber. 5. THE GOOD FATS IN AVOCADOS CAN HELP YOUR BODY ABSORB NUTRIENTS Some vitamins and nutrients are fat-soluble, meaning your body requires a fat source to properly absorb them. Vitamins A, K, D, and E, as well as antioxidants such as carotenoids, use fat to move from the digestive tract into the rest of the body. Because avocados contribute good fats to the diet, eating avocado not only offers additional nutrients, but also helps improve the nutritional value your body gets from other foods. 6. AVOCADOS AND YOUR EYES Avocados contain many antioxidants, including the carotenoids zeaxanthin and lutein, which research suggests both may help maintain eye health as we age. Each serving (1/3 of a medium avocado) contains 136 mcg per 50g serving. 7. EATING AVOCADOS HELPS YOU FEEL FULLER FASTER The dietary fiber found in avocados (11% DV per serving) can help you feel more satisfied after you eat. This is because bulk added by the dietary fiber can help you feel fuller faster. This may prevent snacking between meals and can assist with weight maintenance. The next time you think about reaching for that afternoon sweet fix, grab an avocado instead. 8. AVOCADOS ARE VERSATILE Avocados are a healthy food that can be incorporated into a ton of different dishes, from salads and sandwiches, to sushi and dips. No matter what your personal tastes are, you can find a way to enjoy avocado on a regular basis. 9. AVOCADOS ARE HEALTHY AND DELICIOUS The truth is, some healthy foods just don’t taste good to most people. Certain vegetables can lack flavor or taste bitter. Avocados, on the other hand, have a mild flavor that tastes delicious on its own or paired with other foods. When it comes to being a healthy fruit and tasting great, avocados really do have it all! COMMON NICKNAMES FOR THE AVOCADO The avocado is so well-loved that it’s now referred to by dozens of bizarre nicknames. Here are some of the most common: Alligator pear: if you had never seen an avocado before, you might have come up with this name yourself! The pear-shaped fruit and rough, alligator skin-textured peel have earned the avocado this quirky nickname, which is used widely in Central and South America. Butter fruit/butter pear: avocados are loved for their rich and creamy texture, which may be described as buttery. That’s why the avocado is sometimes called butter fruit or butter pear! Midshipman’s butter: amazingly, the avocado was a rarity in Great Britain for three centuries after it was first discovered. Many people had never seen an avocado before, but heard about the fruit in reports sent back by colonial servants who were overseas. This led to the nickname Midshipman’s butter. USES FOR AVOCADOS The demand for avocados is increasing worldwide, with many countries importing millions and millions of delicious avocados each and every year. When it comes to production, nowhere comes close to the avocado’s place of origin, Mexico. Mexico is followed by Chile, Indonesia, Columbia, and the Dominican Republic. So where in the US are people going nuts for avocados? Here are the top five avocado consuming cities: * Los Angeles, California – 293.15 million avocados consumed * New York, New York – 119.49 million avocados consumed * Dallas, Texas – 116.24 million avocados consumed * Phoenix, Arizona – 114.52 million avocados consumed * Houston, Texas – 111.02 million avocados consumed The people of LA sure do love their avocados! COMMON USES FOR THE AVOCADO While avocados are delicious on their own, or prepared simply with salt, pepper and lemon juice, there are many iconic avocado dishes that everyone should try. First and foremost, there’s guacamole. This tasty avocado-based dip is a Mexican favorite. It is enjoyed at parties, on game day, and at Mexican fiestas! Most families have their own unique recipe but the most common ingredients are creamy Hass avocados, tomatoes, onion, cilantro, chili, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Serve with corn chips or crisp tortilla bread. Delicious! In Indonesia, avocado is commonly used in a sweet milkshake-like drink. The velvety flesh adds an additional layer of creaminess to this tasty treat. In Australia, avocado is commonly eaten on toast with lemon, salt, and pepper. Sometimes they add Vegemite to the bread or place a soft poached egg on top. AVOCADOS AS A FOOD SUBSTITUTE Because the avocado is a source of oil and good fats, and has a smooth, spreadable texture, it’s a fantastic butter substitute for those who want to try something new or are looking for an alternative. Use avocado as you would use non-melted butter, such as on toast and sandwiches. You can even substitute 1 cup of pureed avocado for 1 cup of butter in some baked goods. Just note that this may yield a slightly different taste and texture.
