Limor’s Guacamole

Guacamole is one of those dishes that rewards good ingredients. At its heart, it's little more than ripe avocado, bright lime, and a handful of fresh additions, which means every ingredient has a chance to shine. This version keeps things vibrant and balanced: creamy avocados, zesty lime, a touch of jalapeño for heat, and cilantro for freshness.

The finishing touch is a teaspoon of high-phenolic extra virgin olive oil, stirred in at the end. It lends a silky richness and a signature peppery note that lifts the acidity and ties everything together. That subtle pepperiness is also a sign of the polyphenols that make high-phenolic olive oil worth reaching for.

What makes this guacamole endlessly adaptable is the final step: a little diced sweet fruit or vegetable like mango, red bell pepper, pineapple, even a few halved grapes. That unexpected pop of sweetness against the richness is what turns a familiar dip into something people remember. Customize it however you like, and enjoy.
