Avocado sauce facts for kids
Avocado sauce is a sauce prepared using avocado as a primary ingredient. Commercial sauces are typically prepared to have a thin, sauce-like consistency that is pourable. Commercial preparation involves mixing the avocado using high-speed blenders, which breaks up the pulp. Spices, water and emulsifiers are added, and the resultant product is then typically frozen to prevent browning. Popular brands include Kumana and Herdez.
Additional ingredients in avocado sauce can include tomatillo, onion, chili peppers, cilantro, pepper and garlic.
