Did you know that the avocado pits don’t really help keep your guac green? It’s true. It’s all about science and it really is just a myth. Check out the related blog post and read about the science if you’re skeptical.
Either way, you will love this guacamole and so will your friends. Make some margaritas and quesadillas, and have a fiesta!
Ingredients
- 5 whole Avocados, Chopped
- 4 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 1 cup Yellow Onion, Chopped
- 2 Roma Tomatoes, Chopped
- 2 Jalepeños (finely Chopped)
- 2 Limes, Juiced
- 2 Tablespoons Cilantro, Chopped (optional)
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
Preparation
Slice avocado in half vertically (slicing around the pit and not through it) and twist to separate. Whack the pit with the sharp edge of a large knife and twist to remove. Pull pit off of knife with towel and toss in the trash. Scoop avocado flesh out with large spoon, chop into slightly large chunks and place in a large bowl. I like to use this 4-blade old chopping tool, but if you don’t have one, just use a knife. They will break down as you stir, so start a little bigger.
Immediately, add lime juice followed by all other ingredients. Gently blend with a large spoon. I do not recommend a fork, mortar and pestle and especially not a food processor. Careful not to over stir it. It really is nice when it still has texture and it’s not just mush.
