Why It's Cool: Make your guacamole early; enjoy it for days!

Among the pantheon of “holy grails” in the housewares industry (can there be more than one “holy grail”?) is the search for something that can keep guacamole looking fresh and tasting good for more than a few hours. 

Air is the enemy: that’s what makes avocados start to turn brown and deteriorate. So, how do you deprive your guacamole of air? Some people flood the dish with water or oil, but both of these methods add an extra unwanted element to the mix. Covering the dish with plastic lets in too much air trapped just above the guac and, even if you push the plastic wrap down on the guac, it doesn’t really create a complete barrier. And leaving the pit in the bowl is not only unappetizing, but it doesn’t seem to work. That’s why we were so excited to discover the Guacamole ProKeeper from Progressive ….

The Progressive Guacamole ProKeeper is a 2-cup heavy plastic tub with a plastic lid that has a rubber gasket. The lid pushes into the tub to expel excess air, through tiny slits in the gasket, which prevents the guacamole from browning for days. What this means to us is that we don’t have to wait until the last minute to make guacamole for company and, if we have some left over, then we can still enjoy it in days to come. And the tub itself is neutral enough that it can be used to serve the guacamole, as well as to store it.

And here’s a tip from Progressive: form a mound in the middle of the ProKeeper before pressing the lid all the way down. This helps to ensure a tight seal. Anything that can make it easier to prepare guacamole and make it last longer is truly a Cool Tool, as well as a great hostess gift for your guacamole-loving friends.
