Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs ripe Roma or beefsteak tomatoes, deseeded and finely diced
  • 0.5 medium white or red onion, finely minced
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • 2 jalapeños, deseeded and finely minced
  • 0.5 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
  • Pinch of sugar

Instructions:

  1. Dice tomatoes, onions, and jalapeños to your desired chunky salsa size – aiming for consistent ¼-inch pieces ensures even flavor distribution. Mince garlic and chop cilantro. This meticulous but quick prep (faster than cleaning a food processor!) ensures maximum flavor extraction without over-processing, achieving superior texture.
