Guacamole – Avocado Sauce

Hello dear friends,

Next week, those who taste things that most of you see in the market or in the market but haven't tasted, are usually Ayy! We start with the avocado, a fruit he calls what a lousy thing.

Raw avocado leaves a bitter and unpleasant taste in the mouth. Its ripe form is also considered strange because it does not suit the common palate. For a long time, I gave the same reaction to the taste of avocado as I did to the liver. Come see that lately I can eat spoonfuls and even I enjoy it immensely. But even though I say look at my wife, it is very useful and incredibly nutritious, she insists on not eating it by saying that "everything that is useful tastes so bad". As a last resort, I will try to feed it by making a guacamole sauce based on onions, garlic, lemon juice and tomatoes. I really like this sauce for smoked and grilled meats. I even use it to prepare simple sandwiches like in the photo.

Avocado is a fruit whose homeland is Central America, and it is also called crocodile pear there. It has been produced in our country since 1970. I saw that they were sold for 50 cents each in Antalya or Bodrum markets. If you come across our place in the market, and if you wait a little for the evening market, you can buy 3-4 of them for 5 liras.

There are various kinds of guacamole sauce, but the most well-known is the recipe I'm going to give you right now. Fresh coriander leaves are chopped into it, but if there is no parsley, you can also use it. Since I wanted to have a flavor of coriander in it, I crushed and added some coriander seeds.

Finally, I decided to separate one of the seeds of the avocado and germinate it. For this, you stick a toothpick on the 4 sides of the seed without damaging it much, as in the same photo, and leave it on a glass full of water with the core touching the water. The result is visible after 4 to 6 weeks. If the seed germinates, I will take it in a pot and continue growing it.

Love…
