Tips & Tricks: Avocado

The avocado is a delicious green fruit most often enjoyed as the star of guacamole or sliced atop a salad or a burger. Despite it’s creamy flesh, its bumpy dark green exterior can make choosing a good, ripe one tricky or even intimidating.

Here are some tips & tricks to enjoying your avocado at its best:

How to know it’s ripe
Avoid avocados with soft spots or flat areas on the outside. If the avocado is firm and well-shaped, it is usually a sign that the fruit is good on the inside.
To do more than guess whether the creamy interior is ripe, we turned to Northwest Edible Life’s simple explanation:

(via Northwest Edible Life)

To find out if the avocado is edible, remove the stem. If it is hollow and brown underneath, it’s rotten. If you see a yellow-green color, it’s a good one!  Erica Strauss of NEL recommends allowing it to ripen on the counter for a couple of days and enjoying it as soon as the skin becomes black.
“The difference between a soft and creamy avocado and a brown-streaked, half-rotten one is only a few days on the counter,” Strauss says on her blog.

How to store it
Store avocados on your counter, but take caution when placing it along with other fruits in a fruit bowl. The enzymes released from the other fruits will speed up the ripening process. If you’re in a rush to ripen it, you can use this technique — just be sure to check it every day.  Once ripe, it is best to eat it right away or keep it in the fridge for up to three to five days (which slows its maturation).
Avocados ripen unevenly in extreme temperatures, which you will see during summer and winter months. They are more delicate than they may seem, so remember to handle avocados with care to avoid bruising.

How to slice it
1. Insert a sharp knife into the avocado until you hit the stone.
2. Rotate the avocado around the knife until it’s completely cut in half.
3. Grip both sides of the avocado and twist slightly to pull it apart.
4. Knock the stone with the heel of your knife to embed it, and then twist to remove it.
5. If you want to dice the avocado, make a series of even, parallel cuts using a paring knife, taking care that the knife doesn’t cut through the skin and into your hand!
Then, rotate the avocado 90 degrees, making another series of even, parallel cuts with your paring knife.
6. Over a bowl, use a spoon to scoop out the chunks of the avocado flesh.
7. To slice the avocado, simply make a series of even parallel cuts, and then use a spoon to pull out the flesh. For nice presentation, try to get it all out at once.

How to keep an open avocado from browning
Prevent leftover avocados from browning by sprinkling lime or lemon juice on the exposed flesh, sealing it tightly with plastic and keeping it in the fridge. This slows the oxidation process, which causes the unappetizing brown color.

When to toss it
If an avocado rattles when shaken, it’s time to toss it. Rattling indicates that the pit has pulled away from the flesh and is overripe.


Did you know? It’s a myth that placing the avocado pit in your guacamole will stop the mixture from turning brown.  All that does is prevent the portion directly below the pit from browning because it doesn’t get oxygen!

Asda unveils ‘Snap and Squeeze’ salad dressing sachets

Asda has claimed to be the first UK retailer to unveil ‘Snap and Squeeze’ salad dressing sachets under its own label and as a multipack.

In a statement seen by PN, the retail giant said: “Snap and Squeeze packs were the perfect solution to our requirements.  The innovative opening method can be done with just one hand without the use of scissors, teeth or a knife.

“With your finger and thumb you bring both ends of the credit card sized rigid sachet together which breaks the seal and product is squeezed effortlessly out.

“The dressing can be creatively drizzled over the salad or squeezed at the side of the plate as a dip.  There is no mess and the squeezing motion ensures little residue or waste.”





Asda said that it has just launched a Caesar dressing, a honey and mustard, and a balsamic under its Chosen By You Brand.

It has selected a clear film over an opaque film for the flexible half of the pack to give, what it claims to be, great product visibility.

The multipacks were collated in a self-standing carton, with a window to keep that product visibility.

Asda said it is already looking to increase the range in terms of a flavour offering.  It is also looking to use them for other types of products.

the Best 70 Healthy and Tasty Salad Dressings

Don't Eat Salad with Fat Free Dressing Says Science

If you're using fat free dressing on your salad, you're doing it all wrong. According to scientists, you need to eat salad with fat-based dressings to get the most out of the veggies. Having no fat in your salad actually diminishes the benefit from eating vegetables.

This sounds a little crazy, right? But yes, even though fat free dressing has less calories than its fatty filled counterpart, you're not getting the full oomph you want when eating vegetables with skinny dressings. Researchers at Purdue University compared salad eating with dressing that had saturated fat, monounsaturated fat and polyunsaturated fat at three, eight and twenty grams of fat to find which was most effective and discovered that fat is a good thing. The Atlantic says:

Mario Ferruzzi, the lead author of the study and an associate professor of food science at Purdue, said that in order to get more from eating fruits and vegetables, they need to be paired correctly with fat-based dressings.

It turned out that dressing made with monounsaturated fat (olive and canola oil) were easily the most effective, needing the least amount of dressing to get the most amount of health-promoting carotenoids (carotenoids act as antioxidants in our bodies). Carotenoids are found in eating plant foods like vegetables and fruits so it makes sense that we'd want to get as much bang as we can when eating them. Using salad dressing with fat accomplishes that.

Easy Fresh Fruit Salad

Fresh spiced up fruit salad

A vitalizing and colorful salad, packed with summer goodness.

Healthy food doesn’t have to be complicated and it definitely does not deprive us of anything. We can choose healthy, tasty, real food that looks amazing, that is filling and also good for our bodies.

Fruits (as if anyone needs more reasons to eat fresh fruits!) contain many vitamins and minerals that help us prevent disease and promote good health. They are good for our eyes, immune system, skin, heart, bones, teeth, brain and even our overall happiness! They boost our metabolism, help us improve our memory, help us fight infections, give us energy and what not!

Now, we don’t have fruit salads everyday. We generally bite and munch on one or two fruits at a given time, add them to salads or various other dishes. But on a lazy, sunny summer morning, with the neighbor’s bird cheerfully singing within meters of us, what better than a fresh seasonal sweet and spicy delight?

There’s no recipe or ‘rule’ in making this fruit salad. We first looked in our fruit bowl, chose our fruits, chose our ‘dressing’, added some kick, then some extra kick and ate away!

biggest fruit salad ever

A fruit salad the size of a small swimming pool has claimed a world record for Montreal’s McGill University.
The 5,038-kilogram concoction dethroned Fresno State University on Tuesday for the Guinness World Record for the biggest fruit salad ever.

Volunteers sliced and diced their way through mountains of food, most of it grown at McGill’s Macdonald Campus Farm.

Among the fruit going into the mix was 2,250 kilograms of watermelon, 1,012 kilograms of pineapple and 162 kilograms of strawberries.

The event was part of the university’s Orientation Week held at its downtown campus and was aimed at promoting healthy eating and community involvement.

The event also had an environmental spin with all the waste being composted on campus.
“By at least 700 pounds, we’ve broken the record,” said a proud Oliver de Volpi, McGill’s executive chef. “Pretty satisfied with that. We used mostly our own fruit from our own farm so there’s something to be proud about for local ingredients.”

De Volpi, dressed in a multicoloured chef’s jacket, had urged his team on over a four-hour sprint, calling out milestones in the weigh-in process as buckets of fruit salad were hauled out to a scale.
“It took about 300 volunteers over a couple of shifts,” an elated de Volpi said.
Amanda Mochan, an adjudicator with Guinness, confirmed McGill had beat the American record, which stood at 4,698 kilograms.

“The record will be in our database and on our website, guinnessworldrecords.com, and it’ll be considered for inclusion in the 2014 book,” she said.
“This was a lot of fun,” Mochan said of the event, which she praised for its community involvement. “I think the food-based records are really special because it’s something that’s universal. Everybody loves to eat, everybody loves fruit.”

Mathieu Laperle, director of McGill Food and Dining Services, said the idea had come up in a discussion with the service’s staff.

“The goal was not only to beat this record but to promote healthy food,” he said. “We’ll serve 3,000 people and at the end of the day we’ll send the balance to different shelters in Montreal.” Groups such as Meals on Wheels will also get a portion.

Volunteers and guests at the event got to chow down on the massive fruit salad and some of it also went to the school cafeteria.
Corinne Cadou, director of events and major gifts at the Old Brewery Mission, said her clients will appreciate the bounty, which was picked up in trucks after the results were announced.

“People think of the homeless a lot during the winter but during the summer we’re just as busy, working at full capacity almost every night,” she said, noting the Old Brewery is one of Canada’s largest homeless shelters.

“This is fantastic,” she said of the flavourful donation. “We serve approximately 700 meals a day so for us it’s really a gift.”

Homemade French Salad Dressing

You may find the title of my post “Homemade French Salad Dressing, The American Kind” a bit strange. What does she mean French dressing the America kind? What I mean is that this so called “French” salad dressing is not French but rather an American invention. In France salad dressings are light vinaigrettes. My favorite and the one I came across most often was a delicious and light mustard vinaigrette. As a matter of fact the whole time we lived in France never once did we see a orange-red thick salad dressing like the “French” dressing found in the states and other countries. Wait, on one very rare occasion we actually found a bottle of an orange-red dressing, and it was called American Salad Dressing. When we opened it we realized that the flavor was exactly as the “French” dressing we used to purchase in the US. In Prague Hellman’s sells the American “French” dressing and is called Francouzsky or French. But there is another local brand that sells this as American rather than French.

Did I loose or confuse you guys enough yet? Ok, so the bottom line is that the orange-red sweet-tart salad dressing you see in the photos is an American invention. If you are in France save yourself the embarrassment and do not ask for the orange-red salad dressing at a local restaurant, also don’t complain when your salad does not arrive with that salad dressing but a vinaigrette instead. In case you are wondering, yes I saw Americans in Paris complaining about this. If you simply must have the American “French” dressing then check at a grocery store that carries foreign ingredients.

The Salad Spin Arm Rotation

We tend to get lazy relying on the prewashed lettuces at the market. My husband reminds me that’s how cases of salmonella have occurred from bags not really washed so well. Instead, wash it yourself, and spin in a good eco fiber spinner, such as the nifty bamboo bowl from Cooking. You will tone your biceps (say goodbye to that jiggly upper arm flab) and gain wrist strength from the crank or pull cord. Your reward will be a healthier salad with low calorie dressing. Opt for lettuce like arugula which takes extra effort to dry. Spin away, sexy mama!

5 Gallon Plastic Salad Spinner

Heavy-duty construction makes this 5 gallon salad dryer a must-have for restaurant use. Whenever salad is served, the highest cost item is the dressing! By using our salad dryer, dressing "clings" to the lettuce. This not only cuts down on the amount of dressing used but also makes for better presentation.

What sets this salad dryer apart from the others? This 5 gallon salad dryer incorporates a patented brake system. While using a salad dryer, it is typical for the user to force the spinning handle to a quick stop. While this practice does save some time, it is also very stressful to the gear system in the salad dryer. Now you can simply press the large, rectangular button right on top of the salad dryer to quickly and easily bring the spinner to a stop.

This innovative design feature will greatly reduce worn gears. A sealed gearbox provides a sanitary environment. The large, 5 gallon capacity accommodates 5-6 heads of lettuce. This salad dryer is equiped with convenient side handles for quick and safe transportation.

The crank grip handle has finger grips to minimize operator fatigue and is made of tough, corrosion resistant chrome plated brass. The handle may spin clockwise or counter clockwise. No assembly is required. This product is covered by a 1 year limited warranty.
