With awards season already underway and the super bowl looming closer and closer (Go Green Bay!), it is definitely time to start thinking about what tasty eats and treats you can serve at a get together or eat by yourself during your favourite award show, hockey game or football game. One tasty eat that I love and that also pairs well with nachos or chips and salsa is - you guessed it - GUACAMOLE!!! The much loved crazy dip for chips, nachos, even veggies, and it's great for tacos, burritos, or even tex-mex salads. The key to any good guacamole is the ripeness of the avocados; without ripe avocados the taste is off and trying to mash them with a fork or a potato masher is next to impossible. I don't know if it's really true, but in my experience the little trick I am about to share with you as served me well in my past and hopefully my furture avocado mashing days: Unripe: Pressing into the avocado feels like you are pressing your forehead. Too ripe: Pressing into the avocado feels like pressing into your cheek. Just right: Pressing into the avocado feels like pressing into the tip of your nose. In all, I say the recipe for my guacamole is just a suggestion, perhaps you don't like coriander so you put less or none at all, or you prefer more onion. Whatever the case, start with avocado and taste and tweak as you go! Happy guacamole-ing! :) And as always (as for 3 posts ago) Pinterest wrothy picture at after the recipe!)
