TEXAS BEST PICO DE GALLO



Texas Best Pico De Gallo image

In Texas and Mexico, this is known as pico de gallo, but in Central America it's known as Chismol. It's best with fresh vegetables from the garden or farmers market. Tip: do not overchop ingredients; onion and tomatoes should not be mushy. We use pico de gallo as a relish, dip, topping for baked potatoes, Mexican food or fish, or mix it with pinto beans, black-eyed peas or rice.
