tasty.
Trick, do not throw away the avocado seed.
put the seed inside the Guasacaca container and last more time, take a while to turn brown.

Excellent and easy to make. I too added lime juice, and I used a little less oil than the recipe calls for. I also added a quarter of fresh, seeded serrano pepper for a little kick. The perfect solution to those avocados that are too ripe to slice. What's really great, is this stuff lasts FOREVER. (Well, almost. Doesn't turn yucky brown like guacamole does. It's good on just about everything, from tortilla chips to fish to hamburgers to scrambled eggs. Love it! Thanks.

Really good recipe, very similar to the one we used to have back home (Venezuela not quite the same, but very close. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe, brought me so many memories.... I could not live without Guasacaca.. I'll make sure to keep this recipe on a safe place to share with generations to come, specially my children that way they can have a little taste of my culture. Thanks again!!!!
