Sigona’s Super Simple Guacamole
Guacamole goes on anything from tacos to salmon burgers, but we probably all like it best as a dip for crudités, such as veggies or little gem lettuces, and, of course, chips. Whip yourself up a batch of this super simple guacamole any ol’ night of the week.
WATCH: What’s different about Sigona’s avocados? Robbie Sigona, our produce buyer, ensures each day we have avocados that are ready to eat and avocados that can sit on the counter to ripen for a few more days.
In this video, Robbie talks about why avocados are sometimes black inside and how Sigona’s combats that by proper storage. We have a system in place that guarantees avocado excellence: we get multiple avocado deliveries a week and we store the fruits properly so we have ripe and ready-to-use avocados on hand, as well as avocados that can ripen at home so they’re ready when you are.
Sigona’s Super Simple Guacamole
Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 2 large ripe avocados
- Juice from half a lime more to taste
- 1 to 2 serrano peppers halved, seeded and diced (more or less to taste)
- 1/4 cup diced red onion
- 1/4 cup packed cilantro chopped
- 1/4 tsp cumin
- Kosher salt to taste start with 1/2 tsp
- Optional: 1 small tomato seeded and diced, such as a Roma
Instructions
- Halve the avocados and remove the pits. Scoop out the avocado from the skins; discard skins. Combine the avocado and lime juice together in a medium bowl; mash the avocado with a fork or pastry cutter until you reach a desired texture. Stir in the prepared peppers and onion, then fold in the cilantro, cumin and salt. Taste and adjust for seasoning. Just before serving, fold in the tomato, if using.
