CAN BE MADE IN ADVANCE
You can make it a day ahead of serving, just give it a nice stir with a fork or spoon, maybe one more squeeze of a fresh lime, just to wake it up, and you’re ready to go.
As the pico de Gallo rests, juice will render. This is normal and good! Simply use a slotted spoon when serving.
Muy bueno!
