Dirty Faced Salsa
By: momaphet
May 22, 2009
Made for Zaar World Tour 5 - by the Cooks With Dirty Faces. Like our team this is just a little out of the ordinary with the combo or sweet and spicy, and the crunch from the cuc and jicama. Watch out for flying salsa when everyone digs in, or you'll have a dirty face too!

- 1 1/2 cups tomatoes, diced (must be ripe)
- 3/4 cup pineapple, diced (see note)
- 1/2 medium red onion, finely chopped -
- 1 jalapeno chile, minced (less if you like it mild)
- 1 small cucumber, peeled and diced (about 1 cup)
- 3 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
- 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1-2 garlic cloves, pressed
- 1/3 cup jicama, diced small
- salt and pepper
Directions
1
Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper.2
Note Whether you start with fresh spears, or canned rings or chunks of pineapple, you should gently chop them to a medium dice.

I found this salsa a bit too sweet for my taste, so I added more lime juice. I forgot (oops) to buy cilantro, so I added a pinch of oregano to add a little "herby" taste. What I liked most about it, is that it could be a great start to a ceviche-type salad by adding some seafood to it, maybe shrimp or whitefish chunks..yum. Thank you moma! Made for ZWT5 & Dining Daredevils.

What a delicious salsa! I've never made my own before and I'm glad I tried this one. I've also never had jicama before and love the crunch it adds. The balance of sweet and spicy is just right. Made for Jammin' Java Jivers, ZWT5.

This was a great, but simple salsa. I think combo of cilantro and pineapple really makes this one special. I agree with Kim in that this would be great on fish. I tried this all along the way as it was being made and once I added the cilantro (although I am not a lover of cilantro), I went WOW, this is good. Thanks! Made for Las Mistico Magicos Sirenas ZWT5, Salsa Challenge.

Ohh, the pineapple was a great flavor here!! Loved it with white corn tortilla chips and I really think it would go well with a grilled fish (swordfish). Congrats on a great recipe Cooks with Dirty Faces!! Gracias!! Made for Las Mistico Magicos Sirenas - ZWT5.
