I like the flavor of my guacamole to be very assertive.

As for spice, I used to only use fresh jalapenos.

Id mince up about half a pepper to highlight the other flavors without stealing the spotlight.

Little did I know that adding chopped pickled jalapenos to guacamole isthebestIve never looked back.

I also add a splash of the jalapeno pickle brine.

I find the sweetness a bit off-putting for this app.
