FAQ:
Q: Can I use frozen avocado for this recipe? A: While fresh avocado offers the best texture and flavor, you can use frozen avocado if fresh is unavailable. Just be sure to thaw it properly and drain any excess moisture before using.
Q: How do I keep the avocado from turning brown? A: To prevent browning, always add some lemon or lime juice as soon as you prepare the avocados. Additionally, covering the mixture tightly with plastic wrap and storing it in an airtight container helps slow down oxidation.
Q: Can I prepare this appetizer ahead of time? A: It’s best to prepare this appetizer just before serving, as the freshness of the avocado is key. However, you can prep the ingredients in advance (such as chopping the veggies) and mash the avocado right before serving for optimal freshness.
