National Spicy Guacamole Day is on November 14 in the United States. Created for gourmet cuisine lovers, what aesthete would turn down delicious guacamole? Moreover, it can be used in any combination! So, are you with us?
History
Some scientists believe guacamole originated 500 years ago in Central America. In those days, it consisted of avocados and tomatoes. Perhaps someone added chili to it, but history is silent. The Spaniards had a love for the product but were unable to grow avocados themselves, so they had to purchase them. Over time, guacamole became a favorite dish served in Texas and Mexican establishments.
In the 20th century, Mexican avocados were banned in America until the 1990s. When the restriction was lifted, the Americans rejoiced – their favorite product was now available! Now they like to cook it for any celebrations: many can’t imagine parties without it.
