Avocado Dressing, Not Guacamole
Avocado
Mayo
Crema
Salt
This is the classic taquero dressing, minus the secret ingredients.

Proper consistency:
You can add just about anything you want and its fine, except, NEVER! EVER! make watery guacamole. Only chilangos make that horrible mess, just don't
do it. |
Jesse, that looks GREAT! Gotta love it.
The SAME boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg. It's about what you are made of NOT the circumstance.

Jesse's guac is the way I like it! It isn't the runny liquid of what kaybaj was looking for, but the scoopable dip for chip or meals.
My simple recepie is avocado, diced sweet onion, garlic, salt, tapatio (or diced jalapeños) to perk it up, smashed together then garnish with cilantro
and grated cheddar cheese.

and remember to leave the avocado pit in it so that it doesn't go brown. One pit is enough, no matter how many guacs you used.
and Jesse - really good pic, now where is that guacamole when one wants it !!! like now !!!!

If you like garlic try this.
1 Avocado made into paste(crushed with fork.)
1 Clove garlic through garlic press
very little garlic salt mix together and enjoy.

Why does everyone seemingly hate avocados? How about mashing avocados and adding some lime juice?
Reason I mention that is that fundamentally, people eating guac are doing so with other comestibles. So whatever it is that you are consuming with the
guac, it will add an appropriate flavor.
If you just wish to eat guac by itself, with your fingers, then, by all means, add all that other stuff!

I pretty much use Jesse's recipe but I like adding some lime juice (for flavor, more than for preservative properties) and I like adding grated jack
or cheddar cheese. Use the thick grated side not the fine grated side of the grater. Stir all ingredients until it just becomes slightly creamy with
some avo chunks still present.
Soy sauce..........that sounds interesting, in place of salt.

Hi KayBaj
I'm wondering if what you are thinking about is a salsa that Taquerias here in SoCal usually call 'AGUACATE'.
It's usually a fairly bright green color compared to Salsa Verde. It's absolutely one of my favorites, especially on Carnitas tacos or Burritos! There
is a Taqueria right across the street from my home that makes a very good tasting Aguacate.
It's made with Tomatillos and Avocados, salt, lime juice and usually some extra chiles, like a Serrano. Just put everything in a food processor and
whirl away.
I looked it up on Google and there are many recipes there to try. I'd try out a few to see if it's what you want.
Another possibility is an Avocado sauce that is like the type they serve on Taquitos here in taquerias. That's sold in gallon jugs in Places like
Smart and Final.
