Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe ingredients: This will ensure the best flavor in your Pico de Gallo. Look for tomatoes that are firm and have a deep red color, and onions and jalapenos that are crisp and bright.
  • Chop the ingredients evenly: This will help ensure that they all cook evenly and provide a consistent texture in the Pico de Gallo.
  • Don't overmix the Pico de Gallo: Gently stir the ingredients together until they are combined, but be careful not to overmix, as this can make the Pico de Gallo watery.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and lime juice to taste. You may also want to add a pinch of cumin or chili powder for extra flavor.
  • Serve immediately or chill: Pico de Gallo is best served immediately, but it can also be chilled for later use. If you are chilling the Pico de Gallo, let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
