Pico de Gallo, also referred to as “Salsa Fresca” and/or “Salsa Cruda” is the type of fresh salsa commonly used in Mexican cuisine. Traditional Pico de Gallo is created from chopped tomato, chopped onion, serrano peppers, salt, lime juice, and fresh cilantro. This version is made using Sunchocola Cherry Tomatoes, purple onion, jalapeno peppers, lemon, and parsley. It is easy to slightly modify this recipe depending what you have on hand, and whether you like your Pico de Gallo spicy or not (you can always swap hot peppers for bell peppers or sweet peppers). Pairs well with corn chips, tacos, quesadillas, and salads.
Enjoy!
