Tropical Salsa Fresca #CulinaryCam

I have heard this called salsa crudo (raw sauce), salsa fresca (fresh sauce), 'chopped' salsa, and even some version of pico de gallo though I tend to see that as just tomato based. But I wanted to share this process for our Culinary Cam YouTube channel along with pork carnitas, charred salsa, guacamole, and homemade corn tortillas.

This is definitely one of those processes versus recipes I always talk about. Use whatever fruits and citrus you have on-hand. For this version I used fresh mango and fresh pineapple, so I'm calling this a tropical salsa fresca.

You can watch the video here...or there.

Ingredients makes approximately 2 to 3 cups salsa

1-1/2 cups diced fruit (I used 1/2 cup mango and 1 cup pineapple)
1/2 cup diced tomatoes
1/2 cup diced onions
1 jalapeño, deseeded and diced (adjust for spiciness, as needed)
juice from 1 to 2 limes or lemons
salt to taste

Procedure

Place all of the ingredients together into a bowl. Toss to coat with the citrus juices. Let stand so the flavors can meld together and the onions will soften.

You'll see this tropical salsa fresca on our pulled pork carnitas soft tacos!

You're Invited: Take a (Virtual) Hawaiian Holiday with #FoodNFlix

Fall Break, Oahu, October 2017 For June, I am hosting Food'N'Flix , the movie-watching, food-making group rallied by Heather of All Roads Lead to the Kitchen . This week, my older son was supposed to graduate from high school and we were supposed to leave on a family vacation to the Big Island. But, as enter our eleventh week of being sheltered in place to flatten the curve of the coronavirus, all of our summer plans were canceled, including this long-planned graduation trip to Hawaii. Boo. I understand the need to self-isolate. And we are abiding by the social distancing guidelines put in place by our state. But, boo, nonetheless.
