Growing up, I wasn’t really a big fan of corn chips. Unlike potato that needs hell lot of seasonings to have a personality, corn is already perfection in itself. So, it baffles me why make chips out of those cute morsels of golden sunshine when clearly potato is already doing a good job in that league. Obviously, I knew very little, I was a kid. Then one day, I experienced my first ever Mexican food feast. Never looked back since.
These days, give me a bowl of corn tortilla chips and I’ll make you homemade pico de gallo then you’ll see what’s up.
In a world generously peppered with store-bought anything, there still nothing compare to homemade stuff. That includes homemade pico de gallo. Pico de gallo, salsa fresca, or fresh tomato salsa - call it whatever you deem appropriate, all I know is that it is something that brings a little bit of sunshine to any dish it is partnered with.
