Pico de Gallo Recipe
Description
The recipe involves dicing and combining ripe Roma tomatoes with red onion and jalapeño pepper for mild heat. Garlic and cilantro add aromatic notes, while fresh lime juice provides acidity and balance. Salt enhances the flavors and ties the ingredients together. After mixing, the salsa is chilled to allow flavors to blend. The texture remains chunkier than smooth salsa, emphasizing fresh vegetable qualities.
Pico de Gallo's crisp and refreshing characteristics make it a versatile accompaniment for grilled meats, Mexican dishes, or as a dip. Its simplicity requires minimal preparation, relying on fresh produce quality.

- 1/4 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1/3 cup cilantro chopped leaves
- lime juice of one
- salt to taste
