Mango Pico de Gallo
In Spanish, ‘pico de gallo’ means “rooster’s beak,” since it was originally eaten with the thumb and forefinger, resembling a rooster pecking. Some people really load up on the cilantro. Did you know that for some people, cilantro tastes like soap? I can’t imagine. Special thanks to Chef Joe Shaw for this recipe.
