About Avocados, raw, Florida
The avocado (Persea americana) is a creamy, green-fleshed fruit that grows on trees in tropical and Mediterranean climates, with the pebbly, dark-skinned Hass variety by far the most widely sold. Botanically a large single-seeded berry, it is unusual among fruits for being rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fat rather than sugar, which gives it that signature buttery, luxurious texture. Avocados supply fiber, potassium, folate, and vitamins E, K, and B6, and they ripen only after picking, so a firm avocado will soften on the counter over a few days, faster tucked in a paper bag with a banana.
They are the heart of guacamole, but also get mashed onto toast, sliced into salads, sandwiches, and sushi, blended into smoothies for creaminess, and used as a dairy-free base for dressings and desserts. Because the cut flesh browns quickly, a squeeze of lime or lemon helps. Once ripe, refrigerate avocados to slow them down, and store any leftover half with the pit and a little citrus.
