Ingredients
  

  • 4 large plum tomatoes cored, seeded, and cut into 1/2 inch dice (about 1 3/4 cups)
  • 1 jalapeño seeds and ribs removed, minced
  • 2 green onions including green tops, cut into thin slices
  • 3/4 cup Texas sweet onion diced
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic minced
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt or kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • Prep Your Vegetables: Start by dicing your plum tomatoes. Make sure to remove the seeds to keep the salsa from turning watery. You want that delicious chunky texture!
  • Mix it Up: In a medium bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, minced jalapeño, green onions, diced Texas sweet onion, fresh cilantro, and minced garlic. Stir them gently to combine all those fresh flavors.
  • Zesty Dressing: In a separate measuring cup, whisk together the lemon juice, lime juice, sugar, ground coriander, ground cumin, and salt. This dressing is what brings the magic to your salsa, so mix until the sugar and salt are fully dissolved!
  • Combine the Mixture: Pour the dressing over the tomato mixture and stir gently until everything is well coated. You want each piece to soak in that lovely zing!
  • Let It Rest: Transfer the salsa to a serving bowl, cover it, and let it sit for at least 1 hour. This resting time allows the flavors to meld beautifully, creating a salsa that’s simply bursting with taste!
