I love tomato in my guac. I would even consider corn in there (and bacon!). Avocados are so pesky and expensive that I love to stretch out guacamole with a lot of other vegetables so that it's a meal on its own basically. With some toast or chips or toasted baguette.

Um, what?

What about avocados is "pesky" that would be solved by molesting them with corn and bacon?

I personally prefer a finely minced shallot in my guac.

Or Sautee or grill the onion first.

I don't like onions, so I leave them out. Feel free to add if you'd like.

I think raw onions overpower the whole dish, and then stay with you so long afterwards that they are just unenjoyable.

They can. Any tricks on not letting them? Does chop them, or sautee them before mixing with other ingredients?

Sorry- shallots, green onions, red onions, I still smell it all over your breath.
I think the only solution is to caramelize them a bit. I know that doesn't vibe with the raw guacamole theme, but everything can be improved!

That sounds so gross and definitely doesn't vibe.

Caramelized onion sounds gross to you? They are a delicacy if done right.

I love them in other things, but they sound disgusting in guacamole. They bring a more moist, slimy texture and sweetness.

I don't add lime juice. It tastes better BUT it oxidizes quickly.

Right but that's irrelevant because Guacamole disappears immediately after its served.

How about simply adding fresh guacamole ingredients to a guacamole recipe?

Tomatoes I’ll grant are controversial. Bacon bits are a shit suggestion. Sorry, but shit.

Did you read OP? Says new recipe. What you suggest would probably fall under been there done that recipe

What kind of monster puts caramelized onions in GUACAMOLE?? Talk about 2 flavors that do not go well together in the slightest.

Avocado
Red onion chopped very tiny
Garlic
Salt
Cilantro
A little water

I don’t know why but the water makes it better- Silky, though I do leave some chunks.

I tend to agree with this, so I typically use onion sparingly or in cooked dishes.

Slice onions very finely, soak in ice water, drain ice water, continue chopping

I am now wondering if it has to be ice water, but that’s what I use

Very common in many countries south of here, though for the most part just mashed up with salt and pepper and lime juice is the standard way, and caramelized onions are thrown on top, rather than mixed in, when making tacos.

NO, they are pickled red onions on the top. Not caramelized onions. This isn’t a french soup.
