Homemade Guacamole Recipe

Recipe By Real Simple

The best guacamole recipes are about two key elements: ripe avocados (duh) and perhaps even more importantly, the ratio of ingredients. An out of proportion guac is simply a waste of avocado, and thus, the reason to follow these simple steps for doing it right. Here, its all about a shower of chopped cilantro, just the right amount of acid from a lime, and some heat from a jalapeo. Then, the most important ingredient that ties it together: salt, which highlights the rich avocado, the sharpness of the lime, the herbaceous cilantro and the fiery jalapeo. Only one task is left to you: selecting the perfect chip.
