Guacamole Grand Velas Recipes

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.

GUACAMOLE GRAND VELAS

Steps:

• Cut the avocados in half lengthwise, separate both sides and extract the bone, remove the pulp and place it in a bowl, mortar, or molcajete.
• Add the pinch of salt and the juice of the lemons. Start crushing the avocados, either with the help of a mortar handle, the owl of the molcajete or simply with a fork, until obtaining a puree.
• Once ready, add the onion, tomato and cilantro, and continue mixing until all the ingredients are incorporated.
• Adjust seasoning and incorporate the optional ingredients, personally suggest choosing only one of them, so as not to combine flavors.

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.

AWARD WINNING GUACAMOLE

• Scoop the avocado into a bowl and coarsely mash.
• Add the onions, tomatoes, Serrano chili, lime juice, and salt.
• Stir to combine.
• Press plastic wrap down tightly on top of the guacamole until ready to serve to prevent the avocado from turning brown.

THE BEST GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• Put the diced onion into a small strainer and rinse under cold running water. Transfer to a small bowl and cover with 1 cup cold water. Stir in the vinegar and let sit for 10 minutes.
• Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl. Pour the lime juice over the avocado. Using a fork or potato masher, mash the avocado until creamy with some chunks remaining. Drain the onions well and add to the bowl, along with the jalapeno, garlic, salt and cilantro. Stir to combine.
• Serve immediately with tortilla chips. Or press a piece of plastic wrap directly against the surface of the guacamole to prevent discoloration and refrigerate until ready to serve.
