Homemade Pico de Gallo

Homemade pico de gallo is easy to make, delicious, and much more fresh than any packaged product.

Ingredients

  • 4 medium tomatoes Romas work well year-round, chopped and seeds removed
  • 1 small onion finely chopped (red, yellow, or white are all fine)
  • 1/2 jalapeño seeds and membrane removed, finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup cilantro leaves chopped
  • juice of 1 lime
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, add the chopped tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Stir to combine. Taste, and adjust seasoning as desired.
  • Store in the fridge and serve as desired.

Notes

Pico tastes great immediately, and tastes even better after the flavors have melded in the fridge for an hour or so. I find it's best the same day it's prepared, but any extra will last reasonably well for about 2 days in the fridge. Longer than that, and I try to simply make another batch.
