First time making Pico de Gallo. Smells amazing. Really simple, but the chopping up tomatoes/onions/jalapenos takes a while. Also, it's a bit too spicy since I did 1.5x the jalapenos since it didn't look like there was enough initially. Gonna use this as a topping for some yummy fish tacos later. What do you guys think?
Looks fresh as fuck, wouldn't mind some myself. Have you ever considered a pinch of mint in there, or as garnish? Could tune it towards more of a Moroccan feel.

Pico de gallo shouldn't go on tacos or should go on grilled fish or chicken.
>>9406205
Shut up
>>9406193
post pic of fish tacos when you can.
pico looks tasty
>>9406193
Looks good, but OP you should've cored the tomatoes because it looks watery.
>>9406238
I did core the tomatoes. All that liquid is from 2 whole limes. I'm letting it marinate in the lime juice because it supposedly mellows out the sharpness of the onions or something.
>>9406243
>2 whole limes
Why would you use 3 whole limes? I like limes, but using four limes is too much. Besides, who even has 5 limes ready anyway? Never have more than 7 in my house.
>>9406193
Looks a bit watery. Don't use the 'cores' of the tomatoes and it may look better. Would chip'n'dip, though
>>9406205
Gay
jalapeƱos don't belong in pico de gallo, use serranos instead
>>9406258
wow how can you afford 7 limes?
are you on welfare or something?
>>9406511
this
jalapenos are too bitter
>>9406258
>2 whole limes
where I'm at, you can get 10 limes for a dollar on certain days of the week
>unlike avocados
>>9406243
You don't need to "marinate" it, it's just going to make your 'gallo soggy and gross when you put it on your tacos. Drain that shit.
>>9406193
do you heavily salt/pepper it? any chili powder addition?
>>9407910
why chili powder when it already has jalapenos. Add something more tasty like turmeric and paprika
put that shit in an omelet with some sour cream or you're not a real nigga
I made pico de gallo pretty often, then once I got a food processor ALL THE FUCKING TIME because it was like so beautiful. Instead of 20+ minutes of chopping, it took 5 minutes. Hen when my food processor broke, I just started buying it at the Hispanic market. There are like 8 Hispanic markets within a mile of me, but none of them make it exactly quite like I like it. Gives me a sad.
Long story short, get a food processor

For some reason I feel compelled to break your kneecap with a golfclub. Funny.
>>9406193
You can add cumin but be careful. This will cause a mass sperg incident on this board.
>red onion in pico de gallo
>>9407917
>why chili powder when it already has jalapenos
Because there's more than one kind of chili pepper, anon. I like a combination of Jalapenos for flavor and Arbol for a sharp bite. Some people like to use ancho or chipotle for more of a smoky taste (though IMHO that doesn't match with Pico very well).
>>more tasty like turmeric
That would completely clash with mexican flavor anon.
>>and paprika
Didn't you just ask why someone would add pepper powder? And then you go and suggest adding pepper powder? Lol.

Switch out the red onion for sweet onion and add some garlic and green onions. I ate about two quarts yesterday with a bag of tortilla chips
>>9406193
First of all use white onions not red. Also squeeze the tomato to get the juice out
>>9408826
looks bad man
>>9408826
dude you drain the water a bit out of tomatoes wtf man thats a soup
>>9406205
Pico de gallo is amazing on tacos and feels much fresher than regular salsa.
>>9409379
>feels much fresher
What the hell are you doing with your pico de gallo because "feels" certainly has nothing to do with eating.
anyone else just eat pico de gallo as is?
>>9409527
>He doesn't insert his food anally.
Love a good buko no pico de gallo.
*buko no means 'ala mexicano' in spanish
>>9409378
Better to use a small spoon and scoop the insides of the tomatoes out so you're left with a better flesh to tomato liquid ratio. As always though make it how you like it. Who gives a shit.
>>9406193
>a bit too spicy since I did 1.5x the jalapenos
god damn fucking white people and their weak ass fucking spice tolerance.

Get yourself a slap chop or similar device my dude. They make quick work of onions, garlic, peppers etc.
