Tips

1. To preserve the avocado and prevent the guacamole from darkening, place the avocado pit in the center of the bowl along with the guacamole.
2. One tip to make your dish perfect is knowing how to choose the avocado well. To do this, press the skin, if it is soft it means the avocado is at the right point.
3. Avoid using avocados that are too ripe or too green, as if they are too ripe the guacamole will darken faster. And if the avocado is very green, the guacamole will taste bitter.
4. As avocado is a very fresh ingredient, ideally the guacamole should be consumed within two hours of preparation. Furthermore, it must not be in contact with air so that it does not harden.
