Avocados are a real summer treat – perfect in salads and for refreshing dips. Quality really matters when selecting your avocado as they are really best enjoyed as they are, perhaps with a dash of lemon juice and pepper. We only select the Haas variety for this very reason! It is simply the best. We’ve not only chosen the best variety, but we make sure to buy the best of the best at market so from the first bite you’ll know you’re eating something really special. What’s more, we’ve done a price comparison this week and we’re even cheaper than those sold in some of the supermarkets. Read on to find out more…

Taste: These beautiful Haas avocadoes are wonderfully creamy. They are great in salads and the perfect variety for your Guacamole, but are extremely versatile when paired both with chicken and fish (particularly raw fish) as their oily flesh and delicate flavour will enhance the subtle aromas and taste of your tartare or maki.

Region: Haas avocadoes have been grown successfully in Spain for many years, as there they find the perfect conditions the plant requires: a temperate climate, saline and well aerated soils.

Quality: Our Haas avocadoes are wonderfully rich in flavour, with a distinctive nutty aroma and dark, pebbled skin.

Cost: We always let you know the price per kg so you can easily compare our prices. Our avocadoes are not only superior in quality but also cheaper than so called “premium varieties” found in the supermarkets:

Natoora “Haas Avocado“ from £0.75 each
Abel and Cole “Avocado” £1.25 each
Ocado/Waitrose “Perfectly Ripe Avocadoes“ £0.99 each

Our beautifully creamy haas avocados are tasting superb at the moment. They are wonderful enjoyed very simply, but if you are in need of some avocado inspiration – look no further!

1. Take a big slice
Avocados love a salad. They match wonderfully the flavours of meaty tomatoes and creamy buffalo mozzarella, simply slice, drizzle with good olive oil, salt and lemon juice and enjoy.

2. Rock the Guacamole
Simple and simply delicious, guacamole is of course the perfect accompaniment to mexican food. It’s so easy to make, just blend the avocado with spring onion, lemon juice and chillies.

3. Get toasty
Toast a lovely bit of sourdough bread, then just mash the avocado on top, sprinkle with sea salt and pepper and a good dash of lime juice – great for breakfast.

4. Spice it up
Create a refreshing salsa with diced avocado, onion, chilli, lime and coriander – this is great with grilled meats.

5. Take a big bite
We love a good sarnie at Natoora, and one with avocado is always a good choice. It goes superbly well with the fresh flavours of crayfish, crab meat, or prawns. Don’t forget the lemon juice!
