Notes
- Use ripe avocados - they should be slightly soft to the touch.
- Don't overmix the ingredients - a slightly chunky texture is ideal.
- Use fresh ingredients, such as cilantro, onions, and tomatoes, to enhance the flavor.
- Don't forget to add salt - it's essential for bringing out the flavors in the guacamole.
- If you like a bit of heat, add some finely chopped jalapeño or serrano peppers.
- Cover the guacamole with plastic wrap, pressing the wrap directly onto the surface of the guacamole to prevent air from getting in, which will help keep it fresh.
