Notes
a. The best guacamole starts with the freshest ingredients. Look for avocados that are ripe, but still firm (it shouldn't feel as hard as a baseball, but no soft as banana bread ready bananas). Mushy, soft, overripe avocados are no bueno!
b. The ingredients are to my liking, you can adjust/ alter as you see fit. If you love tomatoes add more, hate cilantro - add less. If you don't like heat - omit the peppers! Above is a guideline of how to make the dish, but it's up to you to make it how you like - experiment, that's how I learned!
