How to Make Zesty Peach Salsa for Seafood

1. Prepare Peaches

Dip the peaches in boiling water for 10 to 15 seconds until the skins loosen and start to wrinkle. Peel the skins off, cut the flesh away from the pits, and dice the peaches into medium-sized pieces.

2. Mix Ingredients

In a mixing bowl, combine the diced peaches with the finely diced red onion and the serrano or jalapeño chile.

3. Add Lime Juice and Salt

Squeeze the juice of one lime over the mixture and add a pinch of salt to taste. Stir to combine.

4. Add Cilantro

Stir in 1.5 tablespoons of chopped cilantro. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt, chile, or lime juice to suit your preference.

Pitfalls and tips

Selecting Peaches

Choose ripe, but firm peaches that give slightly to pressure but are not mushy to ensure the salsa has the perfect sweetness and texture.

Quality of Ingredients

Use the freshest produce and high-quality sea salt and olive oil for the best results.

Knife Skills

Aim for uniform fine dicing to achieve a harmonious blend of flavors that complements the size of the seafood.

Pairing with Seafood

Match the salsa's flavor intensity with the type of seafood, considering whether it's light or rich.

Preparing Peaches

Blanch peaches to easily remove skins without losing flesh, keeping the salsa's appearance and texture intact.
