Are you enjoying the bounty of in-season avocado? I hope so. You can make shakes, salads, dressings and more with this buttery, creamy fruit that has an inherent note of sweetness.
One of the simplest and tastiest ways to eat an avocado (pear) is simply to serve it sliced accompanying your meal. A light sprinkling of salt and freshly ground black pepper is all you need to perk it up. Of course you can switch out the butter with your morning toast and spread it instead with mashed avocado.
It’s easy to entertain with avocados (apart from chips and dip). Serve bread and pears bruschetta-style. However, to make it really outstanding you need to do a few things. First, start with a good crusty, artisan-style loaf of read. Your everyday sandwich loaf would not do – it is too soft and lacks the structure to stand up to the process. It is best to use a loaf of bread that you can slice yourself.
