Expert Tips

Avocados are a New World food, discovered by Hernando Cortés in 1519 and long enjoyed by the Aztecs and Mayans throughout Latin America.

To seed an avocado, cut the avocado in half lengthwise around the seed; twist halves gently to separate. Hit the seed with the sharp edge of a knife. Grasp the fruit, then twist the knife to loosen and remove the seed.

Well, I tried this recipe last night and I would have loved to have written a review based on how great it was but I didn't get that far. I'm young (early 20's) and new to cooking. In my opinion, the "How-To" tip about seeding the avocado should probably be taken down. While trying to twist the knife, the sharp edge went through the seed and avocado and into my index finger. 5 stitches later I am writing this review to warn anyone not experienced in seeding avocados to be very cautious and a butter knife or spoon may be a better approach to seeding the avocado. I'll review this meal after I've healed and actually get to finish this recipe. :-)
