A teaspoon of avocado oil is derived from ripe avocados native to Central America, making it a staple in cuisines inspired by that region and increasingly popular worldwide. This vibrant, greenish-gold oil is prized for its buttery, mild flavor and smooth texture. Rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, avocado oil supports cardiovascular health and helps manage cholesterol levels. It’s an excellent source of vitamin E, an antioxidant that promotes skin and cellular health. With a high smoke point, it’s ideal for sautéing, roasting, and grilling, ensuring nutrients remain intact under high heat. Unlike some oils, it contains minimal saturated fats and no trans fats. While calorie-dense at approximately 40 calories per teaspoon, avocado oil can be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet, offering both nutritive value and versatility across savory and sweet dishes.
