For a smoky depth, char the chile de arbol peppers directly over an open flame for a few seconds per side before toasting in the oven. The reserved tomato mixture makes an excellent base for a spicy salsa or a flavorful addition to soups and stews. To prevent browning, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the guacamole before refrigerating. The avocado pit also helps to slow oxidation.
