Pickle de Gallo
Yield: 8 servings
I use classic dill pickles, fresh cucumber for freshness and crunch, plus bell peppers and onions in my riff on Grillo's mild pickle de gallo, which I can rarely find in the store!
Ingredients
- 2 cups finely diced (¼" size) English cucumber (To prepare, cut cucumber in half length-wise, scrape out seeds, then dice, to equal 2 cups diced.)
- 2 cups finely diced (¼" size) Claussen dill pickle spears See Notes about pickles. (To prepare, cut off and discard the strip of seeds, then dice, to equal 2 cups diced.)
- 1 cup finely diced (¼" size) red bell pepper
- ½ cup finely diced (¼" size) sweet yellow onion
- 1 large clove garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ cup pickle brine, from Claussen dill pickle spears jar
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, fold all ingredients until evenly combined.
- Cover with a tight-fitting lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, folding after 30 minutes. We recommend serving this as a dip, with thick-cut kettle cooked potato chips. You could also serve with tortilla chips.
Notes
Dill pickle spears: I like to use pickle spears that have fresh, bright flavor and color - Claussen has been my usual. Grillo's pickle spears also work great, and will more closely match Grillo's pickle de gallo (which I can never find in the store!).
Storage: Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days. A 1-quart canning jar works great!
Other serving ideas:
- As a condiment for burgers, hot dogs, and brats.
