I really loved this guacamole - it's a nice change from more traditional varieties. And I was surprised at how well the cornichons worked with the fish, but I get not buying them when they aren't something you'd use. (My partner made short work of the jar I bought.)Teresahttp://onewetfoot.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815369823036697.post-74863449968213953432014-07-03T17:49:36.012-07:002014-07-03T17:49:36.012-07:00So, finally, you're beginning to make nice wit...So, finally, you're beginning to make nice with the poor, beleaguered Commissary. The government officials who run it can now sleep peacefully at night. And, your husband will probably get a big fat promotion. Butter, every so often, is just fine. Didn't Julia say that? When I made Dorie's skate (well, actually, Pacific Cod), I just decided the nutritioness of the fish balanced out the butter in the sauce. (I can rationalize anything.)

Strangely I quite enjoyed the brown butter sauce (but then again I just swing with some butter - not a whole lot of it - and it was good), but love the idea of tilapia covered with it!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06522078441278942081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815369823036697.post-28405267376643534312014-06-29T15:10:38.010-07:002014-06-29T15:10:38.010-07:00Glad you were able to find the perfect avocado.

I'm lucky to be able to find avocados and cilantro without too much searching, but jalapenos are hit or miss and tomatillos would be impossible. Thus my need to eat Mexican food nearly every day when I am in the States.

I'm so happy you found one that was nice, and then you had tacos! Red Letter Day! I also never make guacamole with a recipe, though I don't know that I used tomatillos - so I'm interested in what kind of consistency - fresh, then blanched, cooked, canned... <br /><br />Anyway, this wasn't my all-time favorite guacamole, but to be honest, I wouldn't turn it down if it showed up again - I just needed some Mexican hot sauce.<br /><br />Your fish looks great too. I enjoyed it, and really thought the same thing - piccata!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815369823036697.post-55181182258553153192014-06-27T22:20:51.012-07:002014-06-27T22:20:51.012-07:00LOL - I love your tales of shopping at the Commisa...LOL - I love your tales of shopping at the Commisary.

I agree. I'm not a chunky guac person so this was a challenge... yes, I would have to agree the red peppers where too chewy.
