I love veggies and fresh ingredients this time of year. I make big bowls of this salsa, which we eat with pretty much everything in the summer when tomatoes are bountiful. My kids love it, though I leave out the jalapeno when making it for them. -Amy Gattuso, Madison Heights, Michigan

EX-GIRLFRIEND'S MOM'S SALSA FRESCA (PICO DE GALLO)



Ex-Girlfriend's Mom's Salsa Fresca (Pico de Gallo) image

My ex's mom had the best hand-chopped salsa fresca I have ever tasted back in college. Over the years, I have tweaked it to something my friends and family rave about. The trick for this salsa is marinating the onions and jalapenos in lime juice for about 5 minutes before adding the tomatoes and cilantro. There are two tricks to this recipe: 1. Hand-chop everything. It takes a while, but it is worth it. 2. The marinating is what makes this salsa special. Hope you enjoy.

SCOTT'S PICO DE GALLO

Fresh mild salsa. The flavor is best after it sits for a while as the lime juice will mellow out the flavor of the onion and the salt will bring the juices out of the tomato. If you want to make it fast, chop everything in a food processor, but you will not get the same texture as hand-chopped salsa. Also, if you want it spicy add a little chopped jalapeno. Last, you can use the juice from this pico de gallo to make a quick guacamole, just add some of the pico de gallo juice to the avocados, some extra salt, a little mayo, and your guacamole is ready!

Tips:

  • Choose the right zucchini: For the best flavor and texture, use fresh, young, and tender zucchini. Avoid zucchini that are large, old, or have tough skins.
  • Prep the zucchini properly: To prevent the salsa from becoming watery, salt the zucchini and let it sit for 15 minutes before draining off the excess liquid.
  • Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The tomatoes are the star of the show in this salsa, so make sure to use ripe, juicy, and flavorful tomatoes.
  • Chop the ingredients evenly: This will help the salsa to have a consistent texture and flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the zucchini, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the zucchini from cooking evenly and becoming mushy.
  • Season to taste: Once the salsa is assembled, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, lime juice, or cilantro.

Conclusion:

Zucchini pico de gallo salsa is a refreshing, flavorful, and healthy salsa that is perfect for summer gatherings.
