The search for the perfect guacamole recipe is an epic one. How much jalepeño is too much? Should you use lemon or lime? Will onion overwhelm the mix? What about cilantro? Whatever that perfect combination may be, the guac at Surfside (2444 Wisconsin Ave., NW; 202-337-0004) in Glover Park comes pretty close. Chef/co-owner David Scribner shows us how to make his version, drizzled with olive oil, heavy on cilantro and lime, and mashed by hand. Check out the video for his tips on using zest, chopping onions, and getting out those darn avocado pits.
6 to 8 whole ripe avocados, roughly cubed Zest and juice of 2 limes ½ cup olive oil 1 jalepeño pepper, seeded and minced 1 bunch cilantro, roughly chopped ½ small red onion, finely minced Salt to taste
Fold all ingredients together with a spoon or your hands, making sure not to overmix.
Wonderful blog! I found it while browsing on Yahoo News. Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed in Yahoo News? I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Appreciate it

Thanks for making me to acquire new tips about desktops. I also have the belief that certain of the best ways to help keep your notebook in leading condition is a hard plastic-type material case, and also shell, that suits over the top of your computer. These types of protective gear are generally model targeted since they are made to fit perfectly in the natural outer shell. You can buy them directly from the vendor, or from third party places if they are designed for your laptop, however not all laptop could have a spend on the market. Yet again, thanks for your tips.
One other issue is when you are in a scenario where you will not have a cosigner then you may really want to try to exhaust all of your federal funding options. You will find many grants or loans and other grants that will ensure that you get funding that can help with college expenses. Many thanks for the post.

I’ve been surfing on-line greater than three hours lately, but I by no means discovered any interesting article like yours. It’s pretty price enough for me. In my view, if all web owners and bloggers made excellent content material as you probably did, the internet can be a lot more useful than ever before.

I have really learned newer and more effective things as a result of your site. One other thing I’d like to say is that newer computer operating systems tend to allow far more memory to use, but they also demand more memory space simply to perform. If one’s computer is unable to handle extra memory as well as newest computer software requires that memory increase, it is usually the time to shop for a new Personal computer. Thanks

Currently it appears like Drupal is the best blogging platform available right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you’re using on your blog?

I discovered more interesting things on this fat loss issue. One issue is a good nutrition is very vital while dieting. A massive reduction in fast foods, sugary foods, fried foods, sugary foods, pork, and white-colored flour products may perhaps be necessary. Keeping wastes organisms, and toxic compounds may prevent targets for losing fat. While specified drugs momentarily solve the matter, the bad side effects are not worth it, and they also never give more than a short lived solution. This is a known undeniable fact that 95% of dietary fads fail. Thank you for sharing your ideas on this blog site.

Rosa has a good simple recipe but guac is best served after an hour or two of being made to let the flavors mix.
Rosa’s makes it table-side so the flavors are too seperated...

To the comment posted by Arugula....real chefs don’t use gloves!

I cannot believe that so much oil is added. Not necessary at all. Now, the very best is the guacamole at Rosa Mexicano and I make it at home all the time. It’s a little labor intensive but wonderful...and no oil!
Posted by: NancyF, May 06, 2009 11:16:09 AM
I had this guacamole for the first time last night (as well as my toddler who has never touched the guacamole I make at home) and we both LOVED it! David Scribner has serious talent. Thanks for sharing.
Posted by: Julie, May 02, 2009 09:52:49 AM
That looks like good guacamole. I can’t wait to try it.
Posted by: food eater, May 01, 2009 05:03:23 PM
Yikes! I can’t believe he uses his bare, ungloved hands to mix the guacamole. I’m *sure* he washed them beforehand, but still....What would the health department have to say?
Posted by: arugula, May 01, 2009 01:18:34 PM
I love surfside, but they need to nix the oil. There is enough fat/oil content from the avocado itself. I would never order their guac separately and even leave it basically untouched when it comes with my meal.
