To be made properly, Guacamole must be made in a REAL molcajete (not the plastic ones at the Tex-Mex place s in HP and Uptown) seasoned by year's of use. Blender - hell no!

BTW - you left salt off your ingredient list.

I am Mexican actually, born and slightly raised there. I'd say I know quite a bit about my own food.

Tomato, white onions, Cilantro, lime juice, and serrano peppers are musts for guacamole. Salt to taste unless you are using pre-salted chips. You do not have to make it in a molcajete for it to be authentic, but you better not use a blender.

We may need a new chef.

If Chad's into cilantro I can't support him.

Glad to know that there are other Mexican-American SMU fans on the board. Still disagree with your recipe.

Peace!!

What are the key ingredients in guacamole

Avocado, onions/tomatos/cilantro all marinated in lime juice for an hour or two, jalapeno if you want it spicy

Raul rubbed both guacamole and cilantro on Fidel's mouth. He didn't move or lick his lips............Tell the guerilla's to keep the flag at half staff........He's dead it's.......Half Staff Monday Here In Cuba.

I come to ponyfans.com strictly to read the opinions that old men have on their preferred recipes for guacamole.
