Notes
- Choose tomatoes that are heavy for their size. They will have the most tomato flesh.
- Remove the seeds and pulp from the tomato as they will make the Pico de Gallo too watery. Just slice the tomato and scrap them out with a spoon.
- Dice all the vegetables in about the same size.
- The flavor of the vegetables can vary throughout the year. Be sure to taste the Pico de Gallo. Add a little kosher salt and pepper at a time. You can always add more to suit your tastes.
- If you like spicy foods, add chopped jalapeno or hot sauce to the Pico de Gallo.
- Pico de Gallo is best eaten the day it is made. But it will keep up to 2 days in the refrigerator.
