Want the basic steps in how to make fresh guacamole?
You’ve come to the right place. Guacamole can take on many different forms to be used in a variety of different ways — all are delicious. One constant ingredient in all guacamole recipes is the versatile, flavorful, ripe, fresh, avocado. Fresh avocados make the perfect guacamole for any occasion.
Below are the five basic steps on how to make guacamole:
Step 1
Start by cleaning your area as well as your unpeeled, fresh avocados. Ensure you are using Love One Today’s best practices for properly preparing your avocados.
Step 2
Cut the avocado in half lengthwise, twist the halves in opposite directions to separate them, and carefully remove the seed. Check out our detailed instructions on how to cut avocados and remove the pit safely.
Step 3
Scoop out the avocado’s inner flesh with a spoon, separating it from the outer skin. Then, place the avocado’s flesh in a mortar and pestle. Don’t have a mortar and pestle? A bowl and a fork should work for most guacamole recipes.
Step 4
Take a look at your recipe. Recipes vary on whether the avocados should be mashed, sliced, diced, or pureed depending on the desired level of smooth or chunky guacamole.
Step 5
Great work! Now you have mashed avocados in a bowl! What’s next? You’re ready for the seasonings and ingredients that turn plain avocados into guacamole.
Guac Tip
Fresh guacamole should be served immediately to ensure the best possible taste. Guacamole can be stored for about 12 hours when using Love One Today’s best guacamole storage practices.
