Easy to Make Guacamole Dip
by Jan Kovarik

Easy to Make Guacamole!

You can make guacamole that people will rave about! It’s easy, and you don’t need any fancy kitchen utensils or appliances.

What You’ll Need To Have Ready

Assemble the following kitchen items:

Cutting board
Sharp knife
A shallow-lipped dish or bowl, preferably with a flat bottom
A potato masher, hand-held is better than an electric whipper

Ingredients (for one batch, feeds 2-4 people as a side dish or dip for chips):

2 Haas avocados*
Fresh cilantro (usually comes in a small bunch or plastic bag in the produce area)
2 Roma tomatoes
2 fresh limes (not lime juice)
Sour Cream (fat-free is OK)
1 package of Guacamole seasoning (Schilling, McCormick, or Lawry)
Cumin (a spice)
Your favorite salsa (homemade or favorite brand)
Favorite tortilla chips

* Do not use green-skinned “Chilean” avocados. Haas (or “California”) avocados have a very dark skin, almost brown, and the skin has a “wrinkled” appearance. To select avocados that are “ripe” (ready to use), pick up the avocado, hold it in your palm (like you are holding a ball), and squeeze very gently, but with some pressure. The avocado should “give” a little (that is, not feel solid or too firm). If it is “squishy” (really soft), then try another one. Don’t buy too far ahead of time (I like to get them the day before). DO NOT REFRIGERATE prior to making the guacamole.

Making the Guacamole

1. Rinse the avocados. With a sharp knife, but avocado in half. There is a very hard “seed” inside the avocado, so after you’ve sliced it all the way around, grasp the two halves and “twist” to pull apart. You can scoop out the seed with a spoon, then scoop avocado flesh out of the skin and put in the dish or bowl.

2. Pinch off several leaves from the tops of the cilantro and rinse. Trim off stems. Cut through the leaves many times until as finely minced as possible. Scrape into avocado.
