Notes

Storing Tips
While freshly made guacamole is always best, you can store this recipe and keep it fresh for up to two days with our fool-proof storage method.
  1. Put the leftover guacamole in a glass container and smooth out the top so the surface is flat and all the dip is pressed into the container.
  2. Pour a small amount of water on the top of the guacamole, just so it covers the surface. This helps prevent air from getting to the guacamole, which will turn it brown.
  3. Cover the dish with plastic wrap, pressing it down just slightly to the top of the guacamole. Then cover the bowl with a lid.
  4. When you're ready to enjoy your guac again, just remove the plastic, gently pour off the water, and give it a stir!
