Guacamole Ingredients
- 4 large ripe avocados
- 1 Sumo Citrus, peeled and finely diced
- 1 cup pomegranate arils (divided)
- 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
- 1/4 large red onion, finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2–1 tsp pink salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 Tbsp Sumo Citrus juice
- Juice of 1 1/2 limes
- 1 jalapeño pepper, seeds removed, finely diced
Instructions
- Prepare the avocado base: Mash the 4 ripe avocados with the juice of 1 1/2 limes, 1 tablespoon of Sumo Citrus juice, pink salt (start with 1/2 tsp and adjust to taste), and a pinch of black pepper using a fork or masher until you achieve your preferred consistency, whether chunky or smooth.
- Incorporate fresh ingredients: Gently fold in the finely diced Sumo Citrus, reserving a few pieces for garnish, 3/4 cup of the pomegranate arils, finely diced jalapeño (with seeds removed for less heat), chopped cilantro, minced garlic, and finely chopped red onion to the avocado mixture. Stir well to combine all flavors evenly.
- Garnish and serve: Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl. Top with the remaining pomegranate arils, the reserved diced Sumo Citrus pieces, and additional cilantro for a colorful and fresh presentation.
- Serving suggestion: Serve immediately with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh vegetable sticks for dipping.
Notes
- For milder guacamole, reduce or omit the jalapeño pepper.
- If you prefer a smoother consistency, mash the avocados longer before folding in other ingredients.
- Sumo Citrus is a seasonal fruit; if unavailable, substitute with a sweet orange or tangerine, though this may change the flavor profile slightly.
- Prepare this guacamole fresh just before serving to maintain the vibrant colors and texture.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface to prevent browning, refrigerated for up to 1 day.
