The Super Bowl will be played on February 2nd. Statistics show that guacamole (and thus avocados) enjoy their greatest popularity of the entire year on this one day.
I like "guac" as well as the next person and Richie makes a very good one. But Food and Wine has upped the ante just a little...
AVOCADO TARTARE aka Jumped-Up Guacamole
2 T olive oil
2 T minced red onion
1 T each of Dijon mustard, lemon juice, drained capers.
Stir in half a minced jalapeno and 3 drops of Worcestershire sauce
Fold in two diced avocados and serve with small triangles of toast. You can crook your pinky elegantly - or not. It's not mandatory.
AVOCADO HOLLANDAISE
Use a blender to puree 1/2 chopped ripe avocado with 2 teas. lemon juice and 1/3 cup hot water until smooth. With the machine on, drizzle in 2 T of olive oil. Pepper to taste and serve over poached eggs.
A very Southern California Sunday brunch dish ...
