For a spicier kick, add a finely minced jalapeño pepper (seeds removed for less heat, left in for more). Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. You may want to add more lime juice for extra tang or more salt to enhance the flavors. If you don't have fresh lime, bottled lime juice can be used, but fresh is always preferred. For best results, use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. Roma or vine-ripened tomatoes are excellent choices. The salsa is best served fresh, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors will continue to develop over time.
