Thai Guacamole

We’re calling this guacamole recipe “Thai Guacamole” for three reasons. First, for the very on-the-nose reason that we made in in Thailand. Secondly, it has the non-standard ingredient of “dill” (which we don’t think is dill, but sure looks like it, but tastes more like fennel—but is certainly not fennel either.) Lastly, the ingredients in Chiang Mai—or, more specifically, from the Karin Village in the nearby mountains—that we used lend so much more flavor than any store-bought produce we’ve ever purchased. So, essentially the name is to help tamper your expectations—because I’m not 100% sure we can recreate this without farm-fresh ingredients—and acknowledge that this isn’t your typical, Mexican restaurant guac.
