Jeff Shabo from Rick's Roadhouse shows us how to make a delicious guacamole from the freshest ingredients. This dish will be your MVP in the kitchen.
RICK'S ROADHOUSE GUACAMOLE
- 6 ripe Hass avocados
- 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- Juice of 3 limes
- 24 sliced, pickled jalapeno slices
- 6 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- 3 teaspoons cumin
- Few shakes hot sauce (optional and to taste)
- Chopped ripe tomato (optional)
- Sliced radishes, for garnish
Cut the avocado in half. Using a sharp chef's knife, slice through the avocado lengthwise until you feel the knife hit the pit. Remove the pit.
Score the flesh of the avocado without piercing the skin, scoop out into a bowl.
Add all ingredients, mix thoroughly, crushing with a muddler if possible.
Serve with chips or any favorite dipping food.
Notes: Shabo prepared his guacamole in a molcajete, a stone bowl with tool that resembles a mortar and pestle.
