Guacamole
This was passed on to me from my supervisor who attended a cooking class at a small B&B in Puerto Morales. The Little Mexican Cooking School or something. This is by far the best guacamole I have ever had. Takes 5 minutes to make and even less time for it to disappear.
2 or 3 ripe avocado, 1 tomato, white onion, jalapeño, cilantro, salt. No citrus. Thats right.
In a mortar and pestle, grind up 1/2 the diced jalapeño, 1/2 teaspoon kosher(or whatever) salt, and about 1/4 of a small white onion into a paste. This is key, do not skip, the oils released are what prevents the browning of the avocado. Now either cut or mash the avocado into your desired consistency. I like mine chunky. Add the paste and mix. Now add the rest of the diced jalapeño, finely diced white onion to taste, the diced tomato, a good amount of cilantro, salt to taste.
trust me. This is amazing.
All you south of the border might have slight deviances from this but this is my go to.
