    Pam's Classic Guacamole

    Living here in Southern California, you often hear people say that they have the best Guacamole recipe. And Pam's Classic Guacamole is the perfect example of that.

    Of course, my wife says her Mom's guacamole is the best out there. Maybe it's because she has several huge avocado trees on her property which allows her to pick the perfect avocado.

    🥑 How to Pick the Perfect Avocado

    Choosing the wrong avocado will ruin your dish. Especially when the avocado is the main ingredient like in Guacamole. Basically, you want a perfectly ripe Avocado. This is a great article on how to select the perfect avocado.

    In any case, I thought I would share my mother-in-law's recipe for her classic guacamole. If you are in the mood for gourmet guacamole, check out my Mango Guacamole or my Tequila Guacamole.

    The thing is that there are not very many different ways to make good guacamole. The trick is to use the perfect avocados to start with

    Just like I've done for some of my other recipes, I wanted to know the history of Guacamole so I consulted the all-knowing Wikipedia and found this article.
