I can't get my mind off of this recipe...I finally will get a chance to make it this week for a small wedding reception I am hosting. I won't bother making a practice run of it because I just don't trust myself with a bowl of guacamole. From Gourmet Nov. 2008

Tips:

  • Choose ripe mangoes and pomegranates: The sweetness and flavor of the guacamole will depend on the quality of the fruits you use. Look for ripe mangoes that are soft to the touch and have a sweet aroma. Pomegranates should be heavy for their size and have a deep red color.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your guacamole the best flavor. If possible, use fresh cilantro, lime juice, and onions.
  • Don't over-mash the avocados: Guacamole should be chunky, not smooth. Mash the avocados just until they are combined with the other ingredients.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and lime juice to taste. You may also want to add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little heat.
  • Serve immediately: Guacamole is best when served immediately. If you need to make it ahead of time, cover it tightly and refrigerate for up to 2 hours.

Conclusion:

Mango pomegranate guacamole is a delicious and refreshing twist on the classic guacamole recipe. It is perfect for parties, potlucks, or as a snack. With its sweet and tangy flavor, this guacamole is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a new way to enjoy avocados, give mango pomegranate guacamole a try.
