Guacamole Base

To Serve

Method

Guacamole Base

  1. 1

    Prepare avocados

    Cut avocados in half lengthwise, remove pits, and scoop flesh into a medium mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Add salt and lime

    Sprinkle 1 tsp kosher salt over the avocado, then add 2 tbsp fresh lime juice. The lime brightens flavor and helps slow browning.

  3. 3

    Mash to desired texture

    Using a fork or potato masher, mash the avocado to a slightly chunky consistency — leave some small pea-to-chunk sized pieces for texture, or mash smoother if preferred.

  4. 4

    Fold in tomato

    Gently fold in the seeded, finely diced tomato until evenly distributed, taking care not to overwork the avocado to keep it from becoming watery.

Traditional Mix-Ins (optional)

  1. 5

    If making the traditional version, stir in the minced jalapeño (taste and adjust for heat), the finely minced onion, and the chopped cilantro. Taste and add up to an additional 1/2 tsp kosher salt as needed. Mix gently until combined.

To Serve

  1. 6

    Store briefly (optional)

    Transfer guacamole to a serving bowl. If not serving immediately, press a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the guacamole to limit air contact and refrigerate up to 2 hours.

  2. 7

    Serve with thin tortilla chips and lime wedges alongside. Offer jalapeño/onion/cilantro mix-ins separately if allowing guests to build their own traditional guacamole.
