Perfect Guacamole
Perfect Guacamole
It takes less than 10 minutes to make, uses fresh ingredients, and includes a simple trick for making it best. Truly one of the best bowls of guacamole I’ve made.

Guacamole, which originates from Mexico, is one of my favorite things to eat. I’ve passed my obsession on to my 3-year-old, who can finish a bowl of homemade guacamole all by himself.
My favorite recipe aims to be as close as possible to authentic guacamole. It uses fresh ingredients (no dried spices!) and ripe avocados. I love this with homemade tortilla chips!

Ingredients
Instructions
- Add the chopped onion to a small bowl and cover with cold water. Set aside for 5 minutes, drain, and then rinse. This simple step tones down the raw flavor of the onions.
- Cut avocados in half lengthwise, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and add to a bowl.
- 3Use a fork to mash the avocado into a chunky dip.
- Stir in the drained and rinsed onions, lime juice, cilantro, tomato, and salt. If you are adding it, add the finely chopped jalapeño.
- Taste the guacamole and adjust with more salt or lime juice.
- Guacamole is best when eaten soon after making it, but to store it and prevent it from turning brown, press plastic wrap down onto the guacamole and refrigerate for up to two
