Classic Pico de Gallo
Pico de gallo is about fresh, not cooked, flavor — so ingredient quality matters more than technique. Let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes after mixing so the lime juice, salt, and tomato juices meld into a light dressing. The jalapeño heat builds as it sits, so taste before adding more.
