Description

Pico de gallo, considered salsa fresca, is a fresh, uncooked mixture of diced tomatoes,onions, cilantro, fresh chiles, lime juice, and salt. … While traditional salsa has a thinner consistency with more liquid, pico de gallo is chunky, with each chopped ingredient distinctly visible. pico de gallo literally means “beak of rooster.” Some believe this is because it was originally eaten by pinching between the thumb and finger, making the shape of a rooster’s beak.
