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.
