Guacamole is a cold sauce whose main ingredient is avocado, although it also carries onion, tomato, serrano pepper and coriander. It is an ideal complement to tacos, tortillas or corn nachos, among other great variety of dishes.
In general, it is recommended consume the guacamole immediately after its preparationbecause the avocado oxidizes and takes on a slightly brown color.
The avocado turns dark due to an oxidation process. According to this, when we open the fruit, the part that is not consumed comes into contact with oxygen air and _with the action of enzymes called polyphenols_ reacts with a series of compounds (polyphenols) that turn the pulp of the avocado brown.

To put the guacamole in the freezer, you will have to do it in a vacuum-tight package. Also, you will need to add a small amount of lemon or lime juice on top so that the product stays fresh.
