Ingredients

How to make it

  • Chop the tomatoes by hand. To create a perfect 1/8-inch dice, slice
  • off the stem end and stand the tomato on its now-flat surface.
  • Slice straight down to make 1/8-inch-wide slabs.
  • Turn the cut tomato as a unit and cut across the tomato in 1/8-inch
  • increments, creating a dice. Cut the reserved slice into dice as well.
  • Put the diced tomatoes into a nonreactive bowl.
  • Cut the onion in the same-size dice as the tomatoes and put in the
  • bowl with the tomatoes.
  • Add the chile and cilantro. Add the salt and a very small amount of
  • cumin, if you like. Stir well.
  • Note: Because the piquant qualities of onions and chiles vary, you may need to adjust one or the other of these ingredients to taste.
  • Serve the salsa at room temperature within a few hours of preparing
  • it. It does not store well, the tomatoes and onion become soft and
  • the flavors dissipate.
