Avocado is a very versatile ingredient that is used in many different cuisines around the globe. Avocado could easily take center stage at any meal, whether it be for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are a fantastic source of vitamins C, K, E, and B-6 in addition to riboflavin, folate, niacin, pantothenic acid, potassium, and magnesium. They also offer omega-3 fatty acids, beta-carotene, and lutein. Therefore, there is no question that they are beneficial to health as well.
Folklore of Avocado
According to researchers, Puebla, in South Central Mexico, is the place where the avocado originally grew and where inhabitants first started eating it around 10,000 years ago. The domestication of the avocado tree (Persea americana) is said to have begun by Mesoamerican tribes 5,000 years ago, making avocado farming as old as the development of the wheel.
The survival of the avocado before it was domesticated is believed to have depended on the capacity of now-extinct large mammals to withstand the fruit's somewhat deadly pit after swallowing the huge berry whole. Theoretically, by the time the seed was expelled, it was ready to grow.
