Description
Salsa guacamole is a bright green savory and creamy cousin to the well-known avocado salsa. Put it into a squirt bottle and keep it in the fridge.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 Ripe Hass avocados, pitted and scooped into a bowl
- 3 Tomatillos (you can parboil them if you wish, but you don’t have to), peeled and washed
- 1 Serrano chile or 1/4 of a poblano chile, seeded and roughly chopped
- 1 Clove garlic, minced
- 4 T. of Mexican crema (see recipe above), or sour cream, vegan sour cream, or plain creme fraiche
- 6 T. Water (Reduce to 5 T. if you use Mezcal; a teensy bit more if you’re going to add this to a squirt bottle)
- 1 T. Salt
- 1 T. Mezcal (optional)
- Pinch of cayenne (optional, but if you don’t do it, we can’t be friends)
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a blender and blend on high until the mixture is pureed and smooth. Add more water to make it smoother, if you wish.
- Taste for seasoning.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
