PICO DE GALLO



Pico de Gallo image

This easy pico de gallo recipe is a classic for good reason. It pairs with just about everything! My tip is to let it chill for an hour or two before serving to help the flavors blend. Also, it's best to serve it the same day that it's made. -Jeannie Trudell, Del Norte, Colorado

HOMER'S TRADITIONAL PICO DE GALLO



Homer's Traditional Pico De Gallo image

This is a tradional Pico de Gallo recipe that has been in my family for several generations. Many current recipes are variations of this simple one, and their taste is cluttered by garlic or other spices not usually included in the traditional recipe. This makes a great dip for tortilla chips, or in a layered bean dip. One can make great guacamole by smoothing out ripe avocadoes and adding this pico with a little more lime juice and salt to taste. I use a minimum of salt, so you may need to add more to suit your taste.

2 limes
1 tablespoon kosher salt, coarse grind

Steps:

  • In a good sized bowl, place tomatoes, onion and peppers and stir well, then add cilantro.
  • (Secret technique that actually produces a better taste) Place kosher salt in a mound in center of tomato mix, and dissolve with juice squeezed directly from the limes.
