Four New Guacamoles
Four New Guacamoles
Four variations on guacamole recipes

You can find this recipe at El Restaurante. 

Avocados can make a creamy base for everything from creative guacamole recipes to spreads, dressings, soups, sauces and more. Start with this Avocado Puree recipe from Avocados from Mexico’s new brochure, The Fresh Factor, then use it to make the creative guacamole recipes that follow:


Fresh Avocado Purée

Pit and scoop a batch of ripe fresh Avocados from Mexico and purée them using a blender, food processor or immersion blender, adding a little water if needed to achieve a smooth purée. (If you like, add a bit of lemon or lime juice, which will help your purée retain its luscious green color.)

Prepare it once a day, and it will be good to go for up to 24 hours (refrigerated in an airtight container).You can also hold some of it in a squeeze bottle to add a creamy avocado accent and bright green finishing touch to sandwiches, salads and entrées.

Or transfer puree to resealable plastic bags, press out the air, spread the bags on sheet pans and freeze. We recommend this freezing technique only for those times when you have extra purée on hand that you won’t be using immediately and want to store a little longer for later use.


Guacamole

Prepare a base of fresh Avocado Purée, folding in some diced or chunky mashed avocados for texture. Then add a few simple stir-ins and garnishes to create signature guacamoles for your bar and appetizer menu rotation all year.  


• Mucho Mango: Stir in mango and pineapple chunks; garnish with toasted coconut and tangerine segments.


• Pepita: Stir in chopped toasted pumpkin seeds, cashews and almonds; garnish with cilantro sprigs and whole toasted pumpkin seeds.


• Smoke-amole: Stir in chipotle purée, diced cooked bacon or chorizo and black beans; garnish with smoked pimento.


• Piquillo-almond: Mash avocados with roasted piquillo peppers and diced toasted macron almonds.


TRY THIS: FLIGHT OF FANCY

Prepare three or four different types of guacamole and offer a guac flight, with portions of each,

served in small dishes over ice. Pair each with house-made or specialty chips for dipping, a

perfect shareable app.
