Pico de Gallo

Pico de Gallo

The trick here is an even dice, so each scoop has the same crisp mix of tomato and heat. A quick rest with lime brings this everyday red-onion-and-jalapeño pico together.

Butter Club Notes

If I could only keep one salsa in the refrigerator, this would probably be it. It's fresh, takes almost no time to make, and somehow makes everything around it taste brighter. The trick isn't fancy ingredients—it's taking a minute to dice everything evenly so every scoop has a little bit of tomato, onion, cilantro, and jalapeño. Simple recipes don't leave much room to hide, and that's exactly why this one works.
