Chef's Quote

In America, avocados are almost exclusively used in savory dishes such as guacamole, salads, and sandwiches. But avocados (which are, after all, fruits) can be delicious in desserts as well. In fact, this avocado milk shake is one of the most popular drinks in Southeast Asia. Creamy and smooth with a subtle but complex sweetness, this shake makes for a healthy and filling snack. In Vietnam, where it’s called sinh to, this milkshake is sometimes blended with other fruits, made into ice cream, or shaken with iced coffee. I can’t think of a better way to eat your veg – um, fruit.
