Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados: Use ripe avocados that yield to gentle pressure when squeezed. Ripe avocados have a dark green or almost black skin.
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients are key to making the best guacamole. Use fresh lime juice, cilantro, onions, and tomatoes.
- Don't over-mash the avocados: Guacamole should be chunky, not smooth. Use a fork or potato masher to mash the avocados until they are just combined.
- Add some heat: If you like spicy guacamole, add a minced jalapeño or serrano pepper to the guacamole.
- Chill the guacamole before serving: Chilling the guacamole for at least 30 minutes before serving allows the flavors to meld.
