Fresh Peach Salsa Recipe
Description
This salsa recipe combines peeled, seeded, and chopped peaches with freshly chopped Roma tomatoes, onion, garlic, and peppers, including seeded jalapeños for controlled heat. The acidity from lime juice and flavor from fresh coriander enhance the mix, with a touch of taco seasoning adding subtle seasoning complexity.
The preparation involves mixing all chopped ingredients together and serving right away or refrigerating to marinate flavors. The texture is chunky and fresh, suitable as a topping or side condiment for dishes needing a fruity, spicy accent.
Choosing ripe but firm peaches is important to keep the salsa from becoming too mushy. Using Roma tomatoes reduces excess liquid compared to other tomato types. Draining tomatoes before adding prevents watery salsa, and using a slotted spoon when serving helps eliminate excess liquid for a better texture.
Ingredients
- 4 peaches (seeded, peeled and chopped)
- 2 medium Roma tomato
- 1/2 onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 small red pepper chopped
- 1 to 2 jalapeños (seeded and diced)
- 2 tablespoons lime juice (freshly squeezed is best)
- 1/4 cup Coriander chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon taco seasoning (I use a low salt version)
Instructions
- Stir all ingredients together in a bowl until well combined. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
- Use ripe but firm peaches to maintain chunks without turning mushy in the salsa.
- Choose fresh Roma tomatoes for their flavor and lower liquid content.
- Drain tomatoes before adding to the salsa to prevent it from becoming too watery.
- Use a slotted spoon when serving to drain excess liquid and keep the salsa texture chunky.
