- 1 pound strawberries, hulled and finely diced
- 1 jalapeño pepper, stemmed, seeded, and finely diced
- 1/2 cup finely diced red onion (about 1/4 medium red onion)
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, loosely packed
- 1 lime, zested and juiced
- 1 pinch kosher salt
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add the finely diced strawberries, jalapeño, red onion, chopped cilantro, lime zest and juice, and a pinch of kosher salt to a medium bowl. Toss everything gently until all ingredients are evenly mixed.
- Rest to Meld Flavors: You can serve this salsa immediately for the freshest taste, or cover it and refrigerate for about 2 hours to let the flavors meld together for a more developed taste experience before serving.
Notes
- Sweetness: If the salsa isn’t sweet enough for your liking, gradually mix in 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar or honey until the desired sweetness is achieved.
- Storage: Best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir well before serving to recombine flavors.
