Avocado has steadily earned its place as one of the most celebrated superfoods in modern kitchens. Often referred to as “green gold”, the creamy fruit is prized for both its rich taste and impressive nutritional profile. You can spread it over toast, blend it into smoothies, or toss it into salads. Beyond its culinary appeal, avocado is also the source of a highly valued product – avocado oil. The gold liquid is renowned for its mild flavour, high smoke point and numerous health benefits. While store-bought options are widely available, you can easily make this oil at home to ensure purity and freshness. Chef Abdel Ghanem, owner of Chef’s Door restaurant in Canada, shared the quick and easy recipe on Instagram.
