Directions: |
Directions:Soak the red onion in cold water for 5 minutes to take out the "bite."
Cut the avocados in half and carefully remove the pits. Cut the avocado into large cubes and scoop from the skin with a kitchen spoon. Place the avocado chunks in a large mixing bowl and mash with a fork.
Drain the chopped onion. Add the lime juice, tomato (if using), scallions, red onion and cilantro, and adjust seasoning with the Tabasco sauce, salt and pepper.
Refrigerate the guacamole in a tightly covered storage container. It is best to make guacamole the same day it is to be served.

Chef's Tip: If you prefer, you can substitute 1 Tbsp seeded and minced jalapeno for the Tabasco sauce, or use both jalapeno and Tabasco, depending on how spicy you want the guacamole to be. If using jalapeno, add it at the same time you add the lime juice.
