Pico de Gallo Plus
- 4 cups Fresh Tomatoes, Seeded And Chopped (I Prefer Roma Tomatoes But Use Your Preferred Variety)
- 1 cup White Onion, Finely Chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 cup Cilantro Leaves, Loosely Packed
- 1 whole Anaheim Pepper
- 1 whole Jalapeno Pepper
- 1/2 whole Red Bell Pepper
- 1/2 whole Green Bell Pepper
- 1/2 whole Orange Bell Pepper
- 1 whole Lime
- Garlic Salt, Kosher/Sea Salt And Black Pepper, To Taste
- Tabasco (or Any Hot Pepper Sauce), To Taste
- This must sit overnight to come into its full flavor, so be sure to plan ahead!
- In a large bowl, combine tomatoes and onion.
- Mince and add the garlic.
- Finely chop and add the cilantro.
- Split and seed the Anaheim and jalapeno peppers.
- Finely chop them and add them to the mix.
- If you can take the heat, leave the seeds in!
- Core and remove the seeds from the bell peppers.
- Cut them into a medium dice, approximately the same size as you cut the tomatoes.
- (Any color combination is fine, but the more colors you use, the prettier the salsa will be.)
- Put the bell peppers into the bowl with the rest of the goodies.
- Add the zest and the juice of the lime.
- Add as much black pepper as you like.
- Season lightly with garlic salt and kosher/sea salt.
- Mixt to combine.
- Put some plastic wrap over the bowl.
- Let it sit overnight in the fridge.
- Adjust seasonings before serving, adding Tobasco or another type of hot sauce if you want more heat.
- Until the veggies get a chance to marinate together with the lime juice and the flavors begin to meld, its difficult to judge the amount of salt.
- Its also difficult to judge the heat level until the jalapenos have had time to settle in.
- Sitting is key!
- If youre serving with chips, its also a good idea to taste this with a tortilla chip before adding more sealt (because often, chips are salty!
- ).
