Pick Ripe Avocados For The Best Guacamole
Crafting the best guacamole starts with acquiring fresh ingredients. Select avocados that are ripe yet firm; soft, mushy ones will not suffice! To ensure you’re picking good produce, opt for those which still have the stem attached since removing it in stores heightens its likelihood of having brown spots inside. Testing to make sure your pick is just right? Gently press on one end—it should feel slightly yielding but remain steadfast overall.
