# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The cool creaminess against the bright fresh salsa hits every craving at once
  • It comes together in twenty minutes flat but looks like you put real thought into it
02 -
  • Once you assemble the two layers, the salsa's moisture starts breaking down the guacamole's texture, so wait until the last possible moment to combine them
  • Pressing plastic wrap directly onto the guacamole surface if you prep it ahead prevents the browning that ruins the presentation
03 -
  • Mash your avocados with the back of a fork rather than a food processor, which can turn them into an unappealing smooth paste
  • Let the salsa sit for ten minutes before assembling so the tomatoes have time to release their juices
