Guacamole is a thick cream or pur\u00e9e made with mashed and seasoned avocado, originating from the time of the Aztecs. The word comes from the Nahuatl word “ahuacamolli<\/strong> ,” which means avocado sauce<\/em> \ud83d\uddff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today it’s a must-have classic at any gathering: as a dip, side dish, or base for tacos, tostadas, and salads \ud83c\udf2e\ud83e\udd57. Versatile, delicious, and nutritious!<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n \ud83d\udd01 Optional:<\/em> a drizzle of olive oil for extra creamy texture.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n They should be ripe but not overripe: soft to the touch, but not too indented. The heart of guacamole is the avocado! \ud83d\udc9a<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Place it in a bowl and mash with a fork until you achieve a creamy texture, but with small chunks remaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Add the onion, tomato, chili (if using), cilantro, salt, and lemon juice. Mix gently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Taste and adjust the salt or lemon if desired. The balance between acidity, freshness, and creaminess is key \ud83d\udd11.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Guacamole oxidizes quickly, so it’s best served immediately. If you need to store it, cover it with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto<\/em> the surface to prevent it from turning brown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2705 Rich in healthy fats<\/strong> (omega 9), fiber<\/strong> , potassium<\/strong> , and vitamin E.<\/strong> \u274c I once brought guacamole to a family gathering\u2026 and they finished it before I even served mine! Since then, I hide it and only bring it out when I’ve already got my portion ready \ud83e\udd2d\ud83e\udd51<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \ud83e\uddd1\u200d\ud83c\udfeb What is guacamole?
