What could be more unnerving than watching helplessly as your tantalizing creation transforms into something repulsive?

There you go, now you know how to prevent guacamole from turning black :-)

With this trick, you will be able to keep it quietly without risk.

This method avoids oxidation, responsible for color change.

And don't worry, the guacamole won't be absorbed by the water.
