It’s really easy to make, perfect for home cooks, and sure to impress your guests. The recipe is called Guasacaca, and you’re going to love it. It is straight out of Venezuela, where oil and vinegar and a few other flavors put a spin on Mexican guacamole. It is pronounced “wa-sa-CA-ca”, with the initial “g” usually silent. There are several ways to make it, with variations depending on the cook. You’ll find thick and chunky versions, creamy versions, looser versions served more like a dressing, and more. My version is rich and creamy, though you can easily vary it up to your preference. Let’s talk about how to make guasacaca, shall we? Taste and adjust with salt and pepper to your preference. This is an important step, as it really makes it extra creamy. You can adjust the amount of oil to achieve your desired consistency. Boom! Done! Venezuelan guasacaca is ready to serve! It looks wonderful, doesn’t it? So vibrant green and creamy. That’s it, my friends. I hope you enjoy my guasacaca recipe. Super tasty! Give your old guacamole recipe a brand new Venezuelan spin! Your friends and family will love you for it. Let me know if you make it. I’d love to hear how it turned out for you. It works as a salsa or dip, but consider tossing it with a bit of pasta as a sauce, or thin it out with a bit more oil and/or vinegar, then toss it with lettuce or spinach for a quick salad dressing. It’s also great on grilled meats. One of our favorite ways to enjoy it is on toast for a twist on avocado toast. Got any questions? Ask away! I’m happy to help.
