The most consumed avocado in Mexico and the world is the Hass type, despite the fact that there are more than 400 varieties of this fruit.
However, do you know what is the reason that the most consumed avocado bears that name?
The reason is that Rudolph Hass, a farmer from Milwaukee, United States, began experimenting with seeds of Guatemalan origin combined with Mexican seeds.
This is how this variety of avocado emerged, the Hass, whose main characteristic is its black and rough skin, unlike other varieties with smooth and green skin.
According to agricultural specialists, the avocado is grown in fields at sea level and up to 2 thousand 500 meters, however, for it to have the highest quality, it is more advisable to grow it at altitudes between 800 and 2 thousand 500.
The Hass avocado is also known as Persea Americana and is known throughout the world as avocado, aguacate or aguacatero; belongs to the Lauracea family and is originally from Guatemala, Mexico and part of Central America.
Currently it is produced in almost all countries of warm and temperate climates, although the largest crops are in Latin American countries.
But the Hass avocado is not the only one with which you can make guacamole, another that is very similar is the Bacon type, which is also one of the most cultivated varieties and has a look and taste very similar to the first, although its skin is less rough.
The Lamb Hass avocado is another variety with which you can prepare a delicious guacamole. The flavor is similar to Hass and also has a rough texture, although for its harvest it is more resistant to wind and high temperatures.
Whatever the variety, Avocutter will be the most useful tool to cut the avocado and remove the seed easily.
