- Feel free to leave out or substitute any ingredients you don’t like or don’t have.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- When possible, let it rest in the fridge for at least 15 to 20 minutes before serving. This lets the flavors mesh together.
- Eliminating the middle flesh of the tomato will help to remove a lot of the excess water.
- Do not freeze this recipe. It alters the texture of the tomatoes and turns them grainy.
