1951.0. "Pico de Gallo" by EBBV02::BOOTHROYD (Amarillo's on my mind........) Mon Aug 21 1989 16:59

    I would like to know if anyone out there has a recipe for Pico de
    Gallo.  I know how to make it (deseeding and what not) it's just
    that I seem to be *missing* that one/two ingredient(s) that makes
    it seems kinda lackluster to say the least.  Any ideas would be
    appreiated.

    It's Mexican tomato-and-onion relish, and can be served as a condiment
    with virtually any Mexican food you can think of.  It's good stuff!
