Pico de Gallo
Diced tomato, onion, serrano, and cilantro are tossed with lime juice into a chunky, uncooked salsa, always made fresh, never simmered.
Where it comes from
Pico de gallo is a Mexican table salsa built to be assembled fast with whatever ripe produce is on hand, distinct from cooked salsas that need time over heat.
What cooks argue about
The main disagreement is salting: salt drawn out early makes the tomato watery, so some cooks salt right before serving while others drain the diced tomato first.
Versions
Nobody has published a pico de gallo here yet. When somebody cooks one from a video and publishes it, their version appears in this list, with a link back to the original.
