I make a KILLER guacamole. Everbuddy knows it. It so good, there is never
any left. Because I cheat.
I add some cream cheese and sometimes greek yogurt. And I read/heard
somewhere years ago that the best way to get all the lumps out is to mix it
up with your hands, like you would the ingredients of meat loaf. So I do.
I mush it about and squeeze it through my fingers and make silly-string
sorts of structures and designs in the bowl till it is smooth and hardly
guacamole at all, but avocado dip. Then I lick my hands. Then I rinse
them. They are so, so soft. A bonus.
It's just as well that I do not attempt this table side, I think.
But I DO add a tight curl of the thin skin off a tomato on top of the green
pile as a garnish. It looks like a lil rosebud. People always 'ooh' and
'ahh' when it is presented.
But, really, it's still best I do it in private.
