Less additives and more avocado
Lemon juice to enhance the taste
As’lawyer oxidizes quickly, ready-made guacamoles necessarily contain antioxidants. At home, we add juice lemon, it’s largely enough.
“Industrial” preparations can also be rich in additives : stabilizers, emulsifiers, acidity correctors, aromas, flavor enhancers …
More avocado, therefore more natural
Among the guacamoles made by private labels, there is a product containing 3.7% avocado … and 30% water (as well as various additives).
A word of advice: read the labels carefully. Look at the order of arrival of the avocado in the list of ingredients, listed in descending order of importance: it should be listed first.
Homemade guacamole: less salt
Like many special aperitif products, the guacamoles can be quite salty. At home, we try to have a light hand: Tabasco (sauce made from red chili peppers) already contains salt. THE’onion and lemon are perfect for seasoning.
