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.

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!!
