What is Salsa Fresca?

Salsa Fresca, also known as Pico de Gallo, is a fresh, uncooked condiment commonly used in Mexican cuisine. It typically consists of chopped tomatoes, onions, cilantro, jalapeños, lime juice, and salt. Unlike blended salsas, Salsa Fresca is chunky and offers a refreshing, crisp flavor profile. It's often served with tortilla chips, tacos, grilled meats, or as a topping for various dishes.
