what are some of the fruits that the aztecs used to eat?

Answer 1

Aztecs considered avocados forbidden fruit

The avocado has been around since 6000 B.C. but wasn't cultivated until about 500 B.C. in Mexico. The Aztec Indians thought of avocados as sexual aphrodisiacs and, therefore, forbidden fruit.

Scientists have not confirmed that, but before you rush off to the supermarket anyway, here are some tips on choosing avocados:

Buy hard, unripened avocados if it will be a few days before you serve them. To ripen, place fruit in a plain brown paper bag and store at room temperature until ready to eat (usually two to five days). Putting an apple or banana in the bag will hasten the ripening process.
Ripe avocados can be refrigerated until eaten, but don't expect them to last more than two to three days. Whole or sliced avocados don't freeze well, but pureed avocados can be frozen for later use in salads, sandwiches, dips.

To store cut avocados, sprinkle fruit with lemon or lime juice or white vinegar and place in an air-tight covered container in the refrigerator. Eat within a day or two. If refrigerated guacamole turns brown during storage, discard the brown top layer.
To peel an avocado, cut lengthwise around seed, then rotate halves to separate. Remove seed by sliding the tip of a spoon gently underneath and lifting it out. Peel fruit by placing the cut side down and removing the skin with a knife or your fingers, starting at the small end. You also can scoop out the meat with a spoon.
