How do I pick ripe avocados?

Perfectly ripe avocados will be darker in color and yield slightly to gentle pressure. Make sure to avoid overripe avocados, which will feel more mushy to the touch and tend to have brown spots on the flesh.

How long does guacamole keep?

As avocados tend to turn brown rather fast, guacamole is best served on the day you make it. To keep any leftover dip green, you can cover your bowl with plastic wrap and make sure that the plastic wrap is smooshed down into the guacamole. Adding this seal between the guacamole and the air will help to keep it from turning brown. Adding some extra lime juice on top can also help the guacamole keep its color!

What should I serve with guacamole?

As an appetizer, guacamole is great with tortilla chips, toast or even other veggies such as carrots and bell peppers. It also makes a great topping for everything from tacos and quesadillas to rice bowls and burgers!
