Rich and creamy puddings…
I wasn’t into avocado until I tried Avocado milkshake, one of the best milkshakes I’ve ever tasted. Guacamole was the first avocado based dish that I had tried a few years ago at a Mexican restaurant and after that I’ve had salmon and avocado sushi. Last weekend, I had bought a few avocados with the intention of making milkshakes and ended up making pudding. Avocados are excellent for making puddings, they imparted a rich and creamy taste to the puddings.
