I love guacamole, but I've never made it completely from scratch before so I thought I'd give it a try. I decided to try Alton Brown's guacamole recipe because it got such rave reviews.
Ingredients
3 Haas avocados, halved, seeded and peeled
1 lime, juiced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 medium onion, diced
1/2 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
1 clove garlic, minced

1 lime, juiced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 medium onion, diced
1/2 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
1 clove garlic, minced
Directions
In a large bowl place the scooped avocado pulp and lime juice, toss
to coat. Drain, and reserve the lime juice, after all of the avocados
have been coated. Using a potato masher add the salt, cumin, and cayenne
and mash.
Then, fold in the onions, jalapeno, tomatoes, cilantro, and
garlic. Add 1 tablespoon of the reserved lime juice. Let sit at room
temperature for 1 hour and then serve.

What's the verdict? It was SO delicious. I am a wimp when it comes to spicy foods so I only used 1/4 of a jalapeno, and 1/4 tsp of cayenne. It wasn't spicy at all and it was really chip licking good. This recipe is definitely a keeper and one that I know I will make again and again.
