Avocado is a delicious addition
Avocado is a delicious addition to salads and smoothies. Because of its high-fat content and silky texture, it's also a perfect base for salad dressings. Filled with mono-unsaturated and polyunsaturated fats—the "good" ones—all those fatty molecules help carry other flavours around your mouth, making the salad taste even better.
For this dressing, choose ripe avocados. They should have a little give to them, but not be too soft and should have smooth skin. Because avocados oxidise rapidly and change colour from bright green to Gray within minutes, this dressing is best when made right before eating the salad. Although the vinegar will keep it green for a while, it tastes best when mixed in at the last minute.
Tips ~
This dressing is tasty on plain lettuce and really lovely on peppery greens like arugula or mizuna, the pungent flavours of which are toned down by the creamy avocado. It also serves as an excellent foil to something hearty, like kale. Once dressed, let the kale sit a bit to soften in the dressing.
If you only use half the avocado, be sure to cover the remaining half and leave the pit in as is. The pit and a tight cover (like plastic wrap or a special avocado holder) will help keep the remaining flesh green. Store the remaining half in the refrigerator for a day or two.
Recipe Variations ~
There are lots of ways to play with this basic dressing. Here are a few ideas to get you started:
- Use lemon or lime juice instead of vinegar.
- Whisk in avocado oil, sesame oil, or your favourite salad oil instead of olive oil.
- Add a minced Chile, but be sure to start with very little, taste it, and add more if needed.
- Throw in some fresh cut herbs like cilantro, mint, dill, or parsley.
- Add soy sauce or Tamari instead of salt.
- Grate in some fresh ginger or galangal.
- Use one tablespoon of poppy or sesame seeds to add some crunch.
- Add crispy bacon to the salad. The earthy meat pairs really well with
this fresh and vibrant dressing.

Cooking or cookery is the art, technology, science and craft of preparing food for consumption. Types of cooking depend on the skill levels and training of cooks.
Most ingredients in cooking are derived from living organisms. Vegetables, fruits, grains and nuts as well as herbs and spices come from plants, while meat, eggs and dairy products come from animals.Mushroom and the yeast used in baking are kinds of fungi.
Cooks also use water and minerals such as salt. Cooks can also use wine and spirits.
There are many methods of cooking. These include baking, roasting, frying, grilling, barbecuing, smoking, boiling, steaming and braising. A more recent innovation is microwaving. The method chosen greatly affects the end result because some foods are more appropriate to some methods than others.
Cooking can prevent many food-borne illnesses that would otherwise occur if the food is eaten raw. Food safety depends on the safe preparation, handling and storage of food.
Home cooking has traditionally been a process carried out informally in a home and can be enjoyed by all members of the family, although in many cultures women bear primary responsibility.
This channel is all about learning how to cook healthy delicious meals. Our goal for each video is to give you a new recipe. We post recipe once a week.
