Steps:
- Get a container to put the salsa inches.
- Dice the tomatoes as fine as possible. I do this by hand with a large knife for maximum control.
- Dump the tomatoes into the container.
- Dice peppers and onions to desired size, I prefer them as small as possible while still remaining visible in the salsa. CAUTION: Be very careful cutting the jalapeno's and especially Habaneros. Use a plastic glove if you can as exposing the pepper juice to the skin will make your hands burn for days. Dump Into container.
- Dice the cilantro leaves. This is tricky because the cilantro is not exactly conducive to chopping. You can also try tearing the leaves with your hands. Dump into container.
- Add salt. One to two teaspoons usually does it. Just adjust to taste.
- Add lime. Same with salt one to two tablespoons usually does it.
- Use a spoon to mix all the ingredients together in the salsa.
- Refrigerate.

Tips:
- Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients are, the better your salsa will taste. Use ripe tomatoes, onions, and cilantro for the best flavor.
- Choose the Right Tomatoes: Roma tomatoes are the best choice for salsa because they are meaty and have fewer seeds. If you use other types of tomatoes, be sure to remove the seeds before chopping them.
- Don't Over-Chop: Chop your ingredients into small pieces, but don't over-chop them. You want the salsa to have some texture.
- Add Some Heat: If you like spicy salsa, add some jalapeños or serrano peppers. Be sure to remove the seeds from the peppers before chopping them, or your salsa will be too hot.
- Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro and basil, add a lot of flavor to salsa. Be sure to chop them finely before adding them to the salsa.
- Let the Salsa Marinate: After you've made your salsa, let it sit for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
