@zhargidabeoulve Год назад

I like that Jacques uses lemon as it illustrates a very important lesson: if you have it, that's what you're using. Yes I would probably prefer lime, but I would definitely prefer not going to the store if I have the rest of the ingredients but the lime. It's economical. The best part is that you may use an ingredient you don't usually use and find it to be interesting and/or better. In the process of the substitution you've become more knowledgeable.

@RsKnDR0991 Год назад

@dscmex Год назад

Totally agree on the lime, it's what we use in Mexico because lemon was practically unknown here until very recently (it's true!). And as Chef Pepin and you, we shouldn't worry much about using lime or lemon smile

@corystansbury 10 месяцев назад

Agreed. I remember Rick Bayless giving a little talk on how we've come to understand guacamole as a very specific thing with a pretty tight window of acceptable ingredients. He then went onto show a huge amount of variations and "gave us permission" to be less constrained in our thinking. I certainly can't imagine him taking exception to the lemon juice or olive oil here. Kinda reminds me of Italians in comment sections always speaking as absolute authorities on what a dish is, despite every single little village and town having their own rendition going back centuries.

@pigslave3 2 месяца назад

Mexican food appeals to so many people, particularly because it was the first region in the world to have had an active global-culinary presence (Because of Spanish colonization), and Mexicans happily took advantage of this. Plus it helps that Central America has an extremely deep culinary tradition, and the native crops are beloved throughout the world.

@MottiShneor Год назад

I do a more "mediterranean" variation for stronger tastes. I use sun-dried tomatoes which I chop very finely - instead of (or together with) the fresh tomato, I prefer tiny "date-shape" tomatoes. I also use twice the onion, lemon-juice (I use lime juice) and pepper - to make it more lively. But in essence - they're all the same. Thanks, and good health to you chef!

@boothwillson9236 Год назад

Just be sure to seed your tomatoes if you're not going to serve it right away. Their juices will pool on top which doesn't look great and in general will water down your guac. And unless you have in-season (late summer) heirlooms the tomatoes are likely only adding color anyhow. If you don't overdo it on the lime and you get the salt right your guac will always be good.

@christianoliver3572 Год назад

If your avocado is a bit hard, you can microwave them for 20 seconds at a time until they feel right.

I admire and respect Jacques Pepin a lot, so I must admit that I was afraid he might do some outrageous variant of guacamole. He didn't. Replace lemon juice by lime juice and that's pretty much what you get in Mexico too (though some might use Serrano peppers instead of jalapeños)

@daphnepearce9411 Год назад

I also use serranos, tomatillos, cilantro, white onion(rinsed), salt and of course avocados.

One can always tell a truly well honed chef as when they say one tsp, or any measurement, it is as they say it. I get irritated when these cooks say, “just a little bit of oil’ and they add 1/4th cup and act like it is a TBSP. So aggravating. Chef Pepin is exact everytime.

@L.Spencer Год назад

I'd be curious to know if he has ever seen how many people cut tomatoes and onions in Mexico. They cut them in half, then make a grid of cuts, then slice. I always thought that was interesting. He said he spent time there, so he might have seen it done that way. (Not suggesting he should do that, of course he has the best knife skills ever!)

That really doesn't work well all the time. Just squeeze lime juice over the top before you put it in the fridge. Oxidation really doesn't affect the taste so you can either just stir the guac up or use a spoon to take the darkened part off.

@@Unflushablepiss Maybe it's different here in south Texas. It's not and I've been making guacamole for a good 35 years. I've heard from both Anglo older folks and Viejitas as well that the seed trick is an old wives tale. But it really doesn't matter that much as in my household it's all consumed before it would have time to brown. If you're making it ahead of time for a party or something and you don't like a lot of citrus flavor then just use Saran Wrap and press it onto the top of the guac. No oxygen = no oxidation.
