Notes & Tips

To check ripeness of avocado
A ripe avocado will be soft at the end near the stalk .. lightly press. If the avocado is firm / hard it is not ripe.

To store Guacamole oxidizes with exposure to air & loses its green colour very easily if made ahead of time. Guacamole keeps best if a few avocado pips are placed in the mixture & the guacamole is covered with plastic wrap. The wrap should be placed directly on to the surface of the guacamole so that there is minimal exposure to air. Place a lid on the container & refrigerate. Keep refrigerated until needed.
