SALSA FRESCA

Salsa Fresca image

This quick fresh tomato salsa will always be best when tomatoes are in season. But you can pump up the flavor with a little lime juice if the flavor of your tomatoes is a little dull. Juicy tomatoes will yield a more watery salsa than pulpy roma tomatoes.

Time 10m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1/4 small white or red onion, minced
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1 pound fresh, ripe tomatoes, finely chopped
1 to 3 jalapeño or serrano chiles, to taste, minced (and seeded, if you would like a milder salsa)
4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, more to taste
1 to 3 teaspoons fresh lime juice (optional)
Salt to taste

Steps:

Place minced onion in a bowl and cover with cold water. Add vinegar and let sit for 5 minutes or longer. Drain and rinse with cold water.
In a medium bowl, combine remaining ingredients and stir in onions. (If your tomatoes are full of flavor, you won't need lime juice.) Ideally, let stand at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes before eating so that flavors will blend and ripen.

EX-GIRLFRIEND'S MOM'S SALSA FRESCA (PICO DE GALLO)

Ex-Girlfriend's Mom's Salsa Fresca (Pico de Gallo) image

My ex's mom had the best hand-chopped salsa fresca I have ever tasted back in college. Over the years, I have tweaked it to something my friends and family rave about. The trick for this salsa is marinating the onions and jalapenos in lime juice for about 5 minutes before adding the tomatoes and cilantro. There are two tricks to this recipe: 1. Hand-chop everything. It takes a while, but it is worth it. 2. The marinating is what makes this salsa special. Hope you enjoy.

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

6 Roma tomatoes (important)
3 Jalapeno peppers
1/4 to 1/2 sweet or red onion
1 lime
2 or 3 cloves of garlic
One bunch of cilantro (at least one cup when chopped)
Salt and Pepper to taste
optional - 1/4 yellow bell pepper and one ear yellow corn (preferably roasted)

Using a manually operated chopper, chop the tomatoes until slightly chunky. Try to avoid getting them too saucy or allowing them to foam up. Place the tomatoes in a bowl. Press or chop the garlic.

If it is to hot for your taste, add more tomatoes or just a pinch of sugar.
