Strawberry-avocado-smoothie
Hi there you folks of the sun! Do you also enjoy the summer? The temperatures are soooo hot!
We are living in an attic flat and sometimes we can't stand the temperatures anymore... so it is the right moment for a strawberry-avocado-smoothie!
Avocados are pear-shaped and belong to the flowering plant family.
Yeah... the contain a high amount of fat. But most of it is good .. about 67% of total fat is monounsaturated fat as oleic acid.
Avocados really feel comfortable in tropical and subtropical regions. The origin of avocados is south of Mexico.
Here in central europe you find mostly two kinds of avocados: βHassβ or βFuerteβ. In german βHassβ means βhateβ!! We think that is not a cool name for an avocado! We are sure that the avocado wouldn't like the name! Also the name of the following kind is doubtful: βBaconβ. Yeah.. sure.. combine bacon and avocado... there you go... overdose of FAT! :-D :-D Persea americana β¦ the Latin name.... yes.. that is a normal name :-D
But okey.... what is the difference between the main two kinds βHassβ and βFuerteβ? Whereas the βHass-avocadosβ have a dark nearly black napped peel the βFuere avocadosβ have a smooth green peel.
And these yummy strawberries???
In reality they are no real berries. They belong to the aggregate fruits. The real βfruitsβ are thes small brown dots on the red βberryβ.
Strawberries are cultivated since the Stone Age. Well they did know what is good and what is bad. And the men did know how to seduce women because strawberries rank among the most tempting fruits in the world! ;-)
Furthermore strawberries belong to the rose family. And the Latin name? It is Fragaria.
But how we mixed this delicious smoothie we mentioned above?
