Plum Salsa
Description
The Plum Salsa recipe blends fresh plum pieces with diced cucumber, seeded jalapeno peppers for heat, and red onion for sharpness. Lime juice adds acidity while chopped cilantro brings herbal freshness. The ingredients are simply tossed together.
Chilling the salsa for at least an hour before serving allows the flavors to combine and intensify. The cucumber and plum contribute a crisp, juicy texture, while jalapeno lends subtle heat that can be adjusted by removing seeds. The lime juice provides brightness that balances the sweetness of plums.
This salsa works well as a topping for grilled meats or fish, a dip with chips, or a vibrant side for tacos and salads. It is especially enjoyable during warmer months when fresh fruit and vegetables are in season.
