Kuxhomekeke kwindawo okhoyo emhlabeni, unokufumana iavokhado Kuzo zombini izitya ezinencasa njengecala okanye ukuhombisa, okanye njengesona sithako siphambili kwiipudding kunye nedessert. INew York Times Inayo neposti yebhlog enoluhlu lokuhlamba amanqaku afanelekileyo e-avocado: ityebile kwifayibha, inamafutha amaninzi asempilweni (enempilo!), kwaye igcwele iivithamini B (folate), C, E, kunye neK (enceda ukugcina impilo yethambo), ukongeza kwi-potassium kunye ne-lutein (egcina amehlo esempilweni).
Ngama-250 eekhalori kwisiqhamo ngasinye, iavokhado inokuba ikwicala le-dense, kodwa kungenjalo, kuyaqondakala ukuba inani elikhulayo labalandeli lijonga iavokhado sisipho esivela kwizithixo zeziqhamo.
Ii-avocado bezikho amawaka eminyaka
U-Anna-rose Gassot / imifanekiso kaFetty Ii-avocado bezikhona okwexeshana, ukusukela ngo-750 BC ukuba zichaneke nini, nini Ushishino ngaphakathi uthi abembi bezinto zakudala ePeru bafumanise imingxunya ye-avocado ingcwatyelwe kunye nezidumbu ze-Incan. Iziqhamo zazifuywa kakhulu kuMbindi naku Mzantsi Melika kangangamakhulu aliqela eminyaka, kwaye yahlala ingafunyanwa ngasentshona kude kube sekupheleni kwenkulungwane ye-19. Ngeli xesha, isiqhamo ama-Aztec asibiza ngokuba yi-āhuacatl (esiguqulela 'kwitestamente') sathiywa igama kwathiwa yi-aguacate ngaboyisi baseSpain.
Isiqhamo saziwa ngamanye amagama kwezinye iindawo zommandla. Yayibizwa ngokuba yi 'alligator pear' kwikhathalogu yenkulungwane ye-17 yezityalo zaseJamaican - eligama balimi baseCalifornia bagqiba kwelokuba balisebenzise xa betyala iziqhamo ngentengiso. Kodwa igama alibonwanga njengelinakho ukurhweba; Kulapho iqela lokulungiselela ukufama lakhetha ukusebenzisa uhlobo lwaseMelika 'āhuacatl' kwisiqhamo, kwaye ipearigator yaziwa njenge avokhado (nge Ukutya i-Spruce ).
Ii-avocado azange zithandwe kude kube sekupheleni kwekhulu lama-20
Ngelixa iavokhado (yeyiphi Ukutya i-Spruce Ithi, `` I-berry ye-mono-seeded berry '' yayithandwa eCarlifonia, eFlorida naseHawaii, ayikhange iqale ukuthandwa ngakumbi de kube li-1990s, xa i-US yathomalalisa imithetho yokungenisa ngokuchasene nesiqhamo esikhuliswe eMexico.
UHarold Edwards, uMongameli waseCalifornia umlimi weavokhado uLimoneira (nge IBloomberg Uthi, 'Okwenzekileyo nokwenzekileyo kukuba, njengoko ubonelelo lwaseMexico luye lwaxhaphaka kwaye lwafumaneka, abathengisi babesemva kokuthengisa kunye nokuthengisa iiavokhado, ababoneleli beenkonzo zokutya, iivenkile zokutyela zaqala ukuyibeka njengendawo esisigxina kwiimenyu zabo, kwaye yaqala imfuno ukunyuka ngenxa yokuba izinto ezingahambelaniyo ngaphambili zazingaguquguquki, kwaye abathengi bavunyelwe ukuba bonwabele iiavokhado yonke imihla enyakeni. '
Kukho iintlobo ngeentlobo zeavokhado
Zininzi iindidi zeeavokhado ezivenkileni namhlanje - kodwa eyona nguqulelo idumileyo yiHass. I-avokhado zeHass zizongezo ezithandwayo kwisaladi, enamaqanda njengenxalenye yesidlo sakusasa esimnandi, kwis smoothie, kwaye njengesona sithako siphambili guacamole . Isikali apho ii-avocado ezifana neHass zityiwa khona zisetyenziselwa ukuphakama ngeCawa yeSuper Bowl, nini Ushishino ngaphakathi ithi phantse i-200 yezigidi zeepawundi zeziqhamo zityiwe.
Namhlanje, umnqweno wehlabathi weavokhado unyaka wonke. UDavid Magana webhanki yezolimo uRabobank uthi (nge USA Namhlanje ), '... ukwandisa iimfuno zehlabathi, kubandakanya nemfuno yase-US [yee-avokhado], iyaqhubeka nokukhula. Ii-avocado azityiwa nje ngoku kwi-Super Bowl okanye ngexesha lombhiyozo waseCinco de Mayo kodwa [zenzelwe] ukusetyenziswa unyaka wonke. '
Kodwa ukwanda kokuthandwa kweavokhado, kunye nokunqongophala kwamanzi kwimimandla ekhulisa iavokhado, kubeka uxinzelelo kubavelisi abasokolayo ukugcina iimfuno. Umama uJones ithathela iavokhado esona siqhamo sinxaniweyo kwicandelo lemveliso, kuba ukuze kukhule iponti yesiqhamo eCalifornia, apho Ushishino ngaphakathi ithi imbalela yeminyaka esixhenxe iphelile, udinga ngaphezulu koku 74 iilitha zamanzi. Kwaye ayisiyiyo yonke loo nto.
Kunzima ukukhula ngeeavokhado
U-Gus Gunderson, uMlawuli we-Farming yase-Limoneira, uthi, 'Zininzi izinto ezifunwa zii-avocado, nokuba ngamanzi, isichumiso, ukuthena, ukulawula izinambuzane, ukukhusela ukutshiswa lilanga kwemithi. Bonke abo benza amathuba akho angcono okuba nesivuno esihle kakhulu. Xa sithatha isigqibo sokutyala igadi yeeavokhado, siyakutyala imithi evela kwizityalo eziqinisekisiweyo. Kuya kufuneka sibeke ii-odolo zethu kwangaphambili. Ngokomndilili, ukuba sivelisa i-100,000 yeepawundi ngehektare, ethatha malunga nesigidi seelitha zamanzi, ngoko ke i-100 yeelitha ngeponti nganye, ke iyakuba malunga ne-50 yeelitha ngesiqhamo se-ounce nganye. Kodwa kuxhomekeke ekubeni yeyiphi indalo kamama eza kuyiphosa kuwe, uyazi, sinomoya, sinelanga elinamandla. Kunzima ngenene kumlimi ukulawula izinto ezingalawulekiyo ezichaphazela isivuno. '
Ukuba uqaphela zonke ezi zinto, kunye nenyani yokuba iiavokhado kufuneka zithunyelwe kwiikona ezahlukeneyo zomhlaba ngokungxama kuba azigcini ngaphezulu kweentsuku ezisixhenxe ukuya kwezili-10 emva kokuba zikhethiwe, kwaye kufuneka zifike itafile ngokukhawuleza ngenxa yoko, akumangalisi ukuba abalandeli beavokhado bahlawula ipremiyamu yesiqhamo abasithandayo. Ngokonyuka kwemfuno yeeavokhado ezilungileyo, elo xabiso akulindelekanga ukuba lehle kakhulu nangaliphi na ixesha kungekudala.
