Classic Guacamole Recipe


Ingredients:

2 ripe avocados
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
2 tablespoon to 1/4 cup onion, minced
1-2 serrano chiles - remove stems and seeds, and mince
2 tablespoons cilantro, finely chopped
A dash black pepper
1/2 ripe tomato - remove seeds and pulp, and chop


Procedure:

• Cut the avocados in half.
• Remove seed and scoop avocado out of the peel.
• Put avocado in a mixing bowl.
• MASH the avocado. It should be a little chunky.
• Sprinkle with salt and lime juice.
• Add the onion, cilantro, black pepper, and chiles.
• Place plastic wrap on the surface of the guacamole to prevent air reaching it.
• Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Note: If you want to add chopped tomato to your guacamole, add it just before serving.

Answer 2

Yes, limes are commonly used in guacamole.

Answer 3

Yes, it still has citric acid but you'll never be able to get rid of that strange aftertaste of sodium benzodite I think it is.

Answer 4

Yes, but you may want to use a little less lemon juice than the recipe calls for.

Answer 5

Yes, lemon instead of lime is fine. It will have slightly more flavor than the lime, but it is a fine substitute.
