Guacamole
Hate to start a food thread, but I'm needing a good guacamole recipe. Me and the missus got some of it figured out, but what we've attempted is missing something. Any suggestions? Ron Warnick

Re: Guacamole
The best is the simplest. Avocado has a really delicate flavor and light piquance all its own, too often masqued by way to much salsa-like stuff. Not to boast, but people rave, so try this. . .it's a bit different. . . Leave avocados on a south-facing windowsill until they're pretty mushy Mash them with a fork For each avocado, add 1/4 tsp lemon juice, an extra 1/4 tsp to the whole thing for the heckuvit 1/8 tsp Lawry's season salt per avocado 1/2 to 1 tsp minced onion Then cut up a firm, fresh tomato into the whole thing. Cut it up small that's it I like blue corn chips with it. Linda

Re: Guacamole
Here's what Deborah Madison has to say on the subject. I nearly always trust her--to me, there is no higher cookbook goddess. I served this at a party and people were *very* enthusiastic about it. 1/3 c. finely diced white onion or scallion 1/4 c. chopped cilantro 2 med. tomatoes, seeded and diced 1 or 2 serrano chiles, finely diced salt 3 large Haas avocados juice or 1 or 2 limes Reserve a few tsp. of onions, cilantro and chile as garnish. Grind or chop the rest of the onion, cilantro and chile with salt, until it's a rough paste. Peel the avocados and mash them with a fork. Add onion mixture and tomatoes, and season to taste with lime juice and salt. --Jamie S. P.S. Although it's heresy, lemon juice will work, too. The flavor is quite different, but also good. P.P.S. Sudden rush of guilt...shouldn't this be on the fluff list? Oh well, the deed is done now. g [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.wavetech.net/~swedberg http://www.usinternet.com/users/ndteegarden/bheaters

Re: Guacamole
I second the cilantro. I use it if I have it. Personally, I think the piquante sauce just messes with a good avocado. lre
