  • Use a variety of colors: To make your salsa more visually appealing, use a mix of green and gold kiwis. You can also add other colorful fruits or vegetables, such as red bell pepper, mango, or pineapple.
  • Chop the ingredients finely: This will help the salsa to come together and make it easier to eat.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your salsa the best flavor. If you can, buy organic ingredients to avoid pesticides and herbicides.
  • Adjust the heat level to your taste: If you like spicy salsa, add more jalapeño pepper. If you prefer a milder salsa, omit the jalapeño pepper or use a milder variety, such as a poblano pepper.
  • Serve the salsa immediately: Salsa is best when it is fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
