Well.. for starters, the pit will not keep the guacamole from turning brown.
(I've heard that said, and it is silly.) Keeping the oxygen out will. When I
do make it (rarely), I press the plastic wrap onto the surface, then cover.
Preferably a tupperware container if you have one.
The way I make it is by making a small batch of pico de gallo first, then I
add avocado to that. Some chunks, some mashed, for variety in the texture. I
make my pico.. two parts tomato (cut up, and seeded), one part onion, then 1
tablespoon each lemon juice, lime juice, and cilantro. When it's for the
kids, I don't add jalapeno.. if for adults.. 1 tablespoon, chopped. no
seeds. I just guess on the amount of avocado to use.. adding the mashed
first, then the small chunks.
Hope this helps!
