so is this basically the viet style avacado milkshake?

last time i tried to make one i think the avacado was too hard and the milkshake was very like.. sinewy? lol

the Alaska Roll at Sushi Garden is chock full of avocado, very delicious.

Feel obligated to reply to this thread. Love avocados, usually have them in the kitchen but can't tell you how many times I've forgotten about them only to find a hard shell with nasty brown shit inside. Avocados be expensive.... still bought some today. Can't stay away.

The Vietnamese one is milk, condensed milk, ice, and avocado, I think.
At least, that's how my Viet friend makes them

same here. when I buy them, I pick ones that are as hard as possible (soft means ripe and soon to turn brown). then I keep them in the fridge, they last about a week longer than leaving on the counter.

Avocado bubble tea

Mashed an avocado into my cream sauce (when making pasta :badpokerface:). Super rich, would do again!

I just tried the avocado fried egg thanks to this thread. Wow is that good.

^^ yeah, we had avocado's last night as a side dish to our spaghetti... going to try the fried egg one too, that looks amazing.

:nicethread:

Like tomatoes, I'm not really into eating avocados all by themselves but in, on, around or near other stuff, I'm all over it.

Avo with surf shrimp (the little ones at the fishmonger), lemon & hot sauce in the seed hole.
Spoon into pie hole.

Thanks for the fried egg idea :D

Did the fried egg idea for lunch. :drool

I decided to open up an avocado to eat after having them sit for a couple days, because I wasn't sure if they were ripe.. I had to go through 3 avocados to find a good one :okay:

a very useful guide on avocado ripeness

:fulloffuck: what's the point of this thread?

To give insight to this wonderful fruit and the diversity of how its prepared.

Avocados are healthy, generally considered as a kind of "super food".

Been having at least 1 or 2 daily since 10 months ago.

Well this is a bit ironic isn't it?:suspicious:

I love avocados. When I was a kid, my mom used to prepare avocado by cutting it into pieces and pouring some sweet condensed milk on it. It sounds super unhealthy but man, it was so good.

Apparently avocado is a aphrodisiac too.

Came across this today, had to bump.

Just opened up an avocado today and it was completely grey inside. I've opened ones up with brown spots when they were overripe, but this one seemed good to the touch, but when cut open the color of the flesh was grey all over. Anything I did wrong here?

Waiting for my avocados to ripen so I can make this!

Avocado & Papaya salad :D

I love making avocado pasta sauce. A couple of avocados, some lemon juice, basil, olive oil, garlic and salt in the food processor. Serve with spaghetti with some pancetta.

What I tried recently, which is even quicker, is cutting an avocado in half and just putting like 1/2 teaspoon of soy sauce on each of the halves. IMO it's the closest thing to a sushi-type kinda deal :joy:

Mine ripened today. Mango Avocado salad :fullofwin:
