Recipe Notes
Avocados are full of monounsaturated fats and are arguably best in guacamole with other bright flavors like the tomato and cilantro. You can make it as spicy as you like.
The avocados should be just right – not too firm and not too soft. If you purchase them firm, place the avocado in a paper bag on the counter and close the top. After a day or so they’ll be just right.
The easiest way to dice the avocados is to slice them in half and then cut a grid pattern with your paring knife the size that you want the dice. After you have your grid use a spoon and scoop the diced avocado out of its shell a layer at a time (each layer about as deep as your squares are wide).
