The basic recipe for guacamole
Ingredients
- 2 very ripe avocados
- ½ lime
- 1 tomato
- ½ red onion
- A few drops of Tabasco
- 1 C. to c. chopped cilantro
Recipe
- Seed the tomato, cut it into small cubes, as well as the onion.
- Cut the avocados in half, remove the stones and collect the flesh with a spoon.
- Put the avocados in a bowl with the lemon juice and Tabasco (to taste). Mash with a fork.
Why make guacamole yourself?
- To avoid additives: “industrial” preparations can also be rich in additives: stabilizers, emulsifiers, acidity correctors, artificial flavors, flavor enhancers …
- To limit salt: like many special aperitif products, guacamoles can be quite salty. At home, we try to have a light hand: Tabasco (red pepper sauce) already contains salt. The onion and lemon are therefore sufficient for seasoning.
