Nutty Avocado Facts

How many different types of avocados are there?

The two main avocado varieties that you can buy in Australia is the Hass and Shepard avocado. You can also sometimes find Reed Avocados (those that are completely round like a soccer ball) in some stores in Australia. The large Lamb Hass Avocado grows in the tropical climates of Southern California, and the Maluma Avocado is available in the warm climates of South Africa.

Can you freeze avocado?

Avocado freezes well, however it will thaw quite soft and thus will be best for a future dip or smoothie.
Freezing avocado for dip: If you’re planning on making a guacamole or other type of avocado dip, remove the pit of your avocado, mash the flesh, and drizzle with lemon juice to reduce browning. Then store your mashed avocado in an airtight freezer bag.
Freezing avocado for smoothies: For a healthy and creamy addition to your next smoothie, pit your avocado and slice the fresh into large chunks or slices. Place the chunks or slices on a baking sheet atop a tray and freeze for 30 minutes before transferring the avocado into an airtight freezer bag.

What does a Hass Avocado taste like?

Hass avocados are known for their rich, creamy and nutty flavour. Despite the overall flavour being on the milder side, Hass Avocado is a fantastic base for stronger-flavoured seasonings like salt, lemon, chilli flakes, coriander, and balsamic vinegar.

Can you plant an avocado pit?

You certainly can! After you’ve finished up with your ALDI avocado, you can pop your seed straight into some soil, keeping it well watered. Alternatively, many people like to keep their avocado seed skewered in water to watch the roots grow large and the stem and leaves emerge before popping their pit into soil. It’s totally up to you!

How should I keep my avocado fresh?

Once your Hass Avocado is a dark ripe colour, you can store it in the fridge for 3 days. If you use part of your ripened avocado but have leftovers, make sure you brush the leftover avocado with lemon juice to reduce browning.
