The Best Guacamole Recipe

If I could eat guacamole everyday, I would. In fact, I’ve been known to dream about it.

Here is my absolutely most favorite guacamole recipe. It comes from a charming seaside restaurant in Punta Mita, Mexico, where they prepare it right at your table while you drool.

For the best flavor and visual effects, use a Molcajete (can be found at William Sonoma and Crate & Barrel) to make and serve the guacamole. Enjoy with homemade tortilla chips, and a margarita or two. Buen provecho!

1 avocado, peel, and remove pit                                             spices
1/4 medium tomato, seeded and diced
two tablespoons chopped white onion
pinch of salt
pinch of chopped cilantro
pinch of diced serrano chiles
squeeze of lime juice

    I sometimes add fresh, crisp white corn. (an idea from CPK) I steam the corn for a short amount of time, cool it in ice-water, slice it off the core and then add it to the guacamole.

      Maybe I should clarify, slice it off the “husk” instead of core.

Thrilled for this piece to finally see the light o Thrilled for this piece to finally see the light of day on @thegirlfriendletter. And a hearty thanks to @profwendywood, author of Good Habits, Bad Habits, for her words of wisdom. I wrote this back in February, before Covid threw us all a curveball. One thing that I realized is that whether or not we’re in quarantine, many of our basic human traits remain the same. Once a perfectionist, always a perfectionist...until I learned that that mindset was actually holding me back. Love to hear your thoughts.
