Peas in Guacamole?!?!?!?!

Wut..?

 

One of the best sentences that I've ever read in a n OP. Bravo!

 

That's enough to start a war

 

I bet chickpeas in guacamole would work--a hummus/guac mix.

I don't have any issue with this idea in terms of integrity... It just doesn't sound good. I am not a big fan of extra chunky guacamole--gimme extra garlic and spice. The tomato is sweet enough. Peas are only good with garlic, parsley and butter.

 

back in my motherland when we are not shooting enemy and making the secks to missionaries, we make guacamole, but it's diced avocados with eggs and shredded cheese made in the village topped with a little lemon. it's really good.

 

I bet it actually tastes good.

Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and prepare a bowl with water and ice. Plunge peas into the boiling water and cook until al dente, about 1 minute. Drain peas and immediately transfer to the ice bath. Drain.

Heat broiler to high and broil one of the jalapeños on a heatproof pan. Cook, turning occasionally, until jalapeño is completely charred. Transfer to a small bowl, cover tightly in plastic wrap and let sit for 15 minutes. When cool enough to handle, use a towel to wipe off the charred skin. Halve, seed and devein the roasted jalapeño. Then halve, seed, and mince the remaining raw jalapeño.

In a blender or the bowl of a food processor, purée peas (reserving 2 tablespoons for garnish) with roasted jalapeño, minced raw jalapeño, cilantro and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Process until almost smooth but still a little chunky.

In a medium bowl, combine mashed avocado, scallions, lime zest, lime juice, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pea purée. Adjust salt and lime juice as needed and garnish with fresh peas, sunflower seeds and flaky sea salt. Serve with tortilla chips and lime wedges.

 

ay dios mio

 

This is something I expect out of a Brit.

 

Aw hell nah!

 

i could see it working with uncooked peas that'd add a sweet nuttiness but not cooked peas.

 

Why do proper Texas folks give a damn what the yanks do to their food?

If you're ever in their presence, just squint, smirk, shake your head, and walk away.

 

Get a rope.

 

Typical northeast liberal mentality to impose their vision of America. Cultural imperialism is alive and well. Trying insert their "English heritage" that some of us just don't understand.

 

It has been done for awhile now.

I generally only eat my peas steamed but this sounds good

 

As a fellow Mexican, I am deeply offended.

 

I'm glad Obama and the Texas GOP can agree on something.
