Ingredients

5 large tomatoes on the vine, chopped
1 small onions chopped
1/2 each green bell peppers chopped, for mild salsa or 3-4 jalapenos for hot
1/4 cup cilantro chopped
1 each limes juice
1 splash red vinegar
1 x kosher salt to taste

Directions

1

First chop the tomatoes and place them in a fine mesh colander.
2

Squeeze the excess fluid from them with a spatula.
3

This will prevent the salsa from being too watery.
4

Transfer the tomatoes to a large bowl.
5

Chop the onion, peppers, and cilantro and mix all the ingredients together.
6

Add salt to the salsa until you achieve your desired degree of salinity.
7

Finally, to maximize flavor, allow the salsa to rest, covered with plastic wrap, for an hour so the flavors can meld.
8

The flavors will also be more robust at room temperature.
