Chef's Tips
- Ripe Avocados: Use avocados that yield slightly to gentle pressure for the best texture.
- Prevent Browning: If storing, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the guacamole to minimize air exposure.
- Spice Level: Adjust the amount of jalapeño to control the heat.
- Extra Creaminess: For a smoother dip, add a tablespoon of sour cream or Greek yogurt.
- Serving Suggestion: Pair with fresh veggies like cucumber slices or bell pepper strips for a healthier option.
