Guasacaca Avocado Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• Add the cilantro, parsley, avocado flesh, lime zest and juice, garlic, jalapeno, onion and bell pepper to the bowl of a food processor and pulse 4 or 5 times until finely chopped. With the motor running, drizzle in the olive oil and process until completely smooth. Adjust the consistency with up to 4 tablespoons water if needed. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and serve immediately. A perfect addition to a beautifully seared hanger steak.

Steps:

• 1. Mash one of the avocados and place in a bowl. Stir in olive oil and vinegar. Chop other avocados and stir in.
• 2. Finely chop onion and red and green pepper. Mince garlic. Add to avocados along with chopped tomatoes.
• 3. Season with salt, pepper, and hot sauce to taste.

Steps:

• Combine first 9 ingredients in a large bowl; toss mixture gently.
• Cover and refrigerate 3 hours.
• Stir in avocado and remaining ingredients just before serving.

Steps:

• Combine everything except olive oil in food processor. Process until mostly smooth. Continue processing while adding olive oil in a steady stream, until fully emulsified and smooth.
• Scrape into a serving bowl and let stand at room temperature 1 hour to allow flavors to blend. Serve over grilled meats, fish or vegetables, or with chips. Store in refrigerator, but bring to room temperature before serving.
• To use as a dip, I recommend adding finely diced red bell pepper and tomato for texture. Remove tops and bottoms from two red bell peppers. Cut into 3 or 4 planks by cutting alongside the ribs; discard the ribs and seeds. Cut into 1/8" julienne, then cut across into 1/8" dice (this very fine dice is called brunoise). Remove the seeds, jelly and internal ribs from two ripe Roma tomatoes using a grapefruit spoon. Repeat the brunoise procedure. Stir the diced red pepper and diced tomato into the guascaca.

Steps:

• Cut out the stem of the tomato, then slice it in half. Gently squeeze each half so that the seeds and juices run out. Discard the seeds and juices. Chop the tomato into little pieces.
• Cut the avocado in half. With the tip of a small spoon or knife, loosen the seed and lift it out. Gently strip off the skin with your fingers. Chop the avocado into little chunks. Chop up the garlic, too.
• In a large mixing bowl combine the oil, vinegar, chili powder (or fresh chili), salt and black pepper. Mix with a large wooden spoon. Add the diced tomato, avocado, black pepper, chopped egg, garlic, parsley and cilantro. Mix all ingredients gently and thoroughly.
• Serve fresh.

Steps:

• Chop the avocados roughly and place them in a large bowl. Mash them well with the back of a spoon or with a potato masher, leaving them slightly chunky.
• Stir in the rest of the ingredients, adjust seasoning to taste and serve.

Steps:

• Chop by hand, all the vegetables.
• And the remaining ingredients and mix together.
• Chill for at least 3-hours.
• Serve as a dip for nacho chips or as a salsa with anything.

Steps:

• Chop the avocados and the green pepper and place in a bowl with the chopped onion.
• Finely chop the garlic and chile pepper and add to the onions and avocado.
• Add the vegetable oil, vinegar, tomato, and the cilantro or parsley and toss gently.
• If you prefer a smoother guasacaca, add all the ingredients to a blender or food processor, and process until smooth.

Steps:

• Place avocados, onion, bell pepper, jalapeño (if using), garlic, cilantro, parsley, vinegar, and lime juice in the workbowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Pulse until everything is finely chopped, stopping to scrape down sides of bowl as needed. With the motor running, drizzle in olive oil through feed tube. Process until sauce is completely smooth. Season sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to bowl and serve immediately
