Guacamole Tips
- Always use nice, perfectly ripe avocados, it is the most important part
- Make sure the guacamole is nice and chunky, it should have some texture, not be mashed to a puree
- Use white onions, and rinse them in cold water first to take away some of the sharpness and heighten the flavor
- Do not use too much lime. There should only be a little bit of lime to balance the flavor, not to overpower the subtle flavors of the guacamole
