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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap, pressing it down just slightly to the top of the guacamole. Then cover the bowl with a lid.
- When you're ready to enjoy your guac again, just remove the plastic, gently pour off the water, and give it a stir!
