Mini Sir Prize Avocado

The Sir Prize is sweet and almost aromatic, with a light, creamy texture. Its paper-thin skin and small pit give the Sir Prize a 83% ratio of edible flesh to skin/pit--compared to the 60-70% ratio of most other varieties--making it a great bang for your buck.  The Sir Prize is best eaten when the skin has turned black and the fruit has softened to the point where you can make slight ripples with the flesh under the skin.  Despite being much softer than you'd ever eat a Hass, a Sir Prize at this stage won't take on that slightly off smokey taste an overripe Hass will.  And as icing on top of the Sir Prize cake, this variety doesn't oxidize (meaning they don't brown at all!), making it perfect for a beautiful and bright green guacamole.

As the California Hass season winds up, and most supermarkets and restaurants source their avocados from Mexico or Chile, the Sir Prize season is just starting up 6-8 weeks ahead of the new crop of California Hass.

When none of the farms we work with directly has Organic Sir Prize Avocados, we source from our trusted distributors.
