It offers a satisfying texture and a complex flavor profile that goes beyond traditional guacamole. The addition of black beans and corn provides a delightful chewiness and a touch of sweetness, while the fire-roasting process imparts a subtle char and depth.

How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, keep any unused guacamole refrigerated in an airtight container. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the guacamole before sealing the container to minimize oxidation and browning. Consume within a few days of opening for the best taste and texture.
