4 Videos | Photo: Guacamole Recipe
Ingredients
- 4 ripe Hass avocados
- 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (1 lemon)
- 8 dashes hot sauce (recommended: Tabasco)
- 1/2 cup small-diced red onion (1 small onion)
- 1 large garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 medium tomato, seeded, and small-diced
Directions
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh out of their shells into a large bowl. (I use my hands.) Immediately add the lemon juice, hot sauce, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper and toss well. Using a sharp knife, slice through the avocados in the bowl until they are finely diced. Add the tomatoes. Mix well and taste for salt and pepper.

This is the best Guacamole recipe and one I will make again and again. Love the texture and the seasonings. We, like Ina, do not care for cilantro.

I've been making guacamole for years by just throwing things together and tasting & altering, but was trying to provide my daughter a good recipe she could follow. I think the biggest thing missing was the cumin. Without that smoky flavor that brings out the nuttiness of the Hass avocados it felt flat. I also substituted lime for the lemon as that is more commonly available in Latin America. It's a good base, but the tweaks made it taste more like Mexico.

Very similar to the guac I make. I halve the avodaco and cross-cut in the skin, then scoop it out with a spoon. Seems easier than cutting it in the bowl with a knife.
