ElfyHow to prepare this recipe
The only secret of the dish is to get some good avocados at their point of consumption. It is good to buy avocados in bulk so that you can choose each piece at the point of maturity. If it’s hard and stiff, this avocado isn’t good for guacamole. It will be good in a few days, especially if we keep it at room temperature in a fruit bowl where we also have a few bananas. These fruits release a significant amount of ethylene, which will speed up the ripening of the avocado fruit.
The name “guacamole” consists of the combination of two old words of Aztec origin, namely ahuacatl (avocado) and molli (meaning sauce). Wikipedia also notes that traditionally, this sauce contained only well-ripened avocados and sea salt. The sauce was made by crushing it into a kind of volcanic stone mortar, called “molcajete”.
