Are all parts of an avacodo used in recipes?

While the fleshy part is the most commonly used, the skin and pit are generally discarded.

Here's a breakdown:

* Fleshy part: This is the green, edible part of the avocado. It is used in various recipes, from guacamole to salads to smoothies.

* Skin: The skin is tough and inedible. It's usually discarded.

* Pit: The pit is also inedible, although some people believe it has medicinal properties. It is often discarded, but can be used to grow a new avocado tree.

There are some exceptions, though:

* Avocado leaves: In some cultures, avocado leaves are used for flavoring and medicinal purposes.

* Avocado oil: This is extracted from the avocado fruit and used in cooking and cosmetics.

So, while the fleshy part is the primary part used in recipes, there are a few other parts that have limited culinary or medicinal uses.
