SPICY TROPICAL FRUIT SALSA

Spicy Tropical Fruit Salsa image

Other combinations of fruits will also taste great in this colorful salsa. Try adding diced melon, such as cantaloupe, honeydew, or musk. Diced mango is delicious also, or, for a truly tropical and exotic salsa, add sliced star fruit (also known as carambola). As with any of my recipes calling for habanero's, you as chef, can substitute with any other capsicum. From "The Habanero Cookbook" by Dave DeWitt and Nancy Gerlach.

Tips:

Choose the right fruits: Use a mix of fruits that are sweet, tart, and juicy. Some good options include mangoes, pineapples, peaches, strawberries, and kiwi.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors: Add some heat with chili peppers or jalapeños, or sweetness with honey or agave nectar. You can also add some tang with lime juice or vinegar.
Make sure your salsa is well-balanced: There should be a good balance of sweet, tart, and spicy flavors. If your salsa is too sweet, add some lime juice or vinegar. If it's too spicy, add some honey or agave nectar.
Let your salsa sit for a while before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop.
Serve your salsa with your favorite Mexican dishes: It's great with tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and nachos.
