PURIST'S GUACAMOLE
Aficionados of Mexican cooking likely know of Diana Kennedy. Wife of a New York Times bureau chief in Mexico City, Diana scoured all regions of Mexico for the most authentic recipes, and published at least two cookbooks that are considered classics of Mexican cookery. I adapted this recipe from her instructions for making guacamole. It is the tastiest I have ever eaten.
