5. If you’re a fan of garlic, introduce it to the mix, allowing its pungent flair to mingle with the other flavors.
6. Gently transfer your pico de gallo into a giant glass jar, seal it with a lid, and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour—allowing the flavors to become fast friends.
– The beauty of pico de gallo is its simplicity, but don’t hesitate to make it your own. Some folks like to add diced avocado, mango, or even sweet corn for a twist.
– If dealing with picky eaters, reserve a portion without the jalapeños or onions so everyone can dig in happily.
– Remember, the longer the pico de gallo sits, the more intense its flavors will become—if you have leftovers, they make for a fantastic next-day treat.
– Keeping the pico de gallo in a glass jar isn’t just for show; it also helps in keeping it fresh. Just make sure your jar is airtight, and this salsa can bravely guard its flavors in the fridge for up to five days.
