Perfect Guacamole

I first had Guacamole at Chipotle, NY.  I think all of us would have tasted Mexican through Chipotle first. The flavorful cilantro rice with super healthy black beans and other veggies are too good to resist for a mouth. How could one have them without the Guacamole Dip?

Guacamole, a dip made from avocados, is originally from Mexico. The name is derived from two Aztec Nahuatl words - ahuacatl (avocado) and molli (sauce). The trick to perfect guacamole is using good, ripe avocados. Check for ripeness by gently pressing the outside of the avocado. If there is no give, the avocado is not ripe yet and will not taste good. If there is a little give, the avocado is ripe. If there is a lot of give, the avocado may be past ripe and not good. In this case, taste test first before using.
