Step-by-Step Instructions for Fresh Peach Salsa
  1. Start by washing and drying 4-5 ripe peaches. Slice them in half, remove the pit, and carefully dice the flesh into small, uniform pieces.
  2. Next, finely chop half a red onion and one jalapeño pepper, ensuring you remove the seeds for a milder taste if desired.
  3. Rinse and finely chop a handful of cilantro leaves, about ¼ cup, and stir them into the bowl.
  4. Juice one fresh lime directly over the mixture, making sure to catch any seeds.
  5. Sprinkle a pinch of salt over the salsa and mix thoroughly.
  6. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and let the salsa sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
  7. Once the time is up, give your salsa one last gentle stir. Serve it chilled.
