Stone-Fruit Salsa
The Washington Post, July 2, 2008
$10 Picnic for Two
- Course: Condiment
- Features: Fast
Summary:
This unique salsa makes the most of seasonal produce that is at its peak flavor and can often be found at sale prices. It is best to use medium-ripe fruit that is juicy but can easily be diced into uniform small pieces.
The salsa can be made up to 2 days in advance but is best enjoyed the day it is prepared, served chilled. Try it with toasted tortilla chips.
