My Famous Guacamole Recipes

WORLD'S BEST GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• Combine the onion with the juice of 2 limes in a small bowl; allow the onion to soak in the lime juice for 2 hours. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve and discard the lime juice. Set the onions aside.
• Grind the serrano chile peppers, the juice of 2 limes, and salt together in a food processor until smooth; add the avocado and continue processing until creamy and smooth. Transfer the mixture into a small serving bowl; fold the soaked onions, chopped cilantro, and about half the pomegranate seeds into the avocado mixture. Top with the remaining pomegranate seeds and garnish with the cilantro sprig to serve.

ALMOST-FAMOUS GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• Mash together the avocado, lemon juice, lime juice and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a mixing bowl until creamy. Fold in the cilantro, red onion and jalapeno with a spoon or spatula. Adjust the salt if needed.
• The guacamole can be made up to 2 hours in advance. Store in an airtight container and smooth a sheet of plastic wrap on the surface without any air pockets. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the onion and lime juice, and season with salt and pepper. Let that sit as you chop the jalapeño.
• Cut the hard stem end off of the jalapeño and discard, then slice the chile in half lengthwise. If you don't want the spice, use your knife or a spoon to remove the inner seeds and white membrane (this is where most of the chile's heat resides). If you enjoy the heat, then leave all of that in. Chop the jalapeño as finely as you can and add to the bowl with the onion and lime juice. Be sure to wash your hands very well with soap after handling spicy chiles like jalapeños, and whatever you do, do not touch your eyes after handling them.
• Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and pull the halves apart. You can use your knife to pit the avocados, but a safer way is to hold the avocado half in one hand so that your thumb is touching the skin side where the pit is and your index and middle fingers are touching the flesh side around the pit. Gently press your fingers into each other to pop the pit out; with a ripe avocado, it should come out very easily. Use your hands to squeeze the avocado flesh out into the bowl with the other ingredients, or scoop it out with a spoon.
• Using a fork, gently mash the avocados against the side of the bowl until they are mashed to your desired consistency, then stir them into the other ingredients until well combined. Taste and add more salt if desired.
• Contrary to popular belief, adding avocado pits to guacamole does nothing to prevent oxidation, but if you press a good layer of plastic wrap or parchment paper directly over the guacamole and store it in the refrigerator, it will keep well for up to 2 days.

MY GRANDMA'S GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Arrange chile peppers on a baking sheet.
• Toast chile peppers in the preheated until browned, about 7 minutes. Remove stems.
• Mix avocados, onion, and roma tomatoes together in a bowl.
• Blend canned tomatoes, cilantro, toasted chile peppers, garlic powder, and salt in a blender until smooth. Pour about half the blended tomato mixture into avocado mixture. Reserve remaining tomato mixture for another use or for dipping.
• Squeeze lime juice into avocado mixture and gently stir until evenly combined. Transfer guacamole to a smaller serving bowl; place reserved avocado pit in the middle to prevent browning.
