What should you look out for when buying this ingredient?
When purchasing avocados, giving it a squeeze is a standard method to make sure you’re buying the best quality produce. At Under500, our standard specifications include small, dark and rough skinned hass avocados from Mexico, such as ‘Arriba’
Any challenges with using it?
A main challenge would be time management. Avocados are not cheap, so the ordering of the fruit needs to be timed perfectly with its usage for minimum waste. We are lucky to have an amazing supplier that supplies us with perfect produce.
What’s the best way to use it?
We love serving our fresh avocados smashed up on toast (pictured above), with a little feta, parsley, salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon.
