Avocado, 500 g

The avocado, often termed as ‘butter fruit’ in India, has gained prominence in recent years. Originally a native of South-Central Mexico, this fruit has found its place in the Indian palate owing to its unique, creamy texture and mildly nutty flavour. It’s now commonly used in salads, sandwiches, smoothies, and even in baking as a healthier fat alternative. Avocados are cultivated in parts of Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Karnataka. With the rising trend of global cuisines and healthier food choices in India, avocados are increasingly becoming a part of the Indian kitchen.

Avocados are oval-shaped fruits with a thick, green, and bumpy leathery outer skin. They have a unique texture with a creamy and light green coloured flesh that has a buttery flavour and special aroma. Avocados are also known as an alligator pear or butter fruit. Fresho avocados delivered to you will not just entice your taste buds but will also ensure your well-being.

Ripe avocados turn dark brown or black in colour. Any small black spots on the fruit are due to abrasion during harvesting or handling and do not affect the quality of the fruit. |
