Pico de Gallo de Xoconostle (Guanajuato Xoconostle Pico)

Pico de Gallo con Xoconostle

A Guanajuato bajio classic that swaps tomato for xoconostle - the tart, ruby-fleshed wild prickly pear that grows on the hillsides of central Mexico. Crunchy jicama, the sour bite of xoconostle, jalapeno, and lime: this is the regional pico de gallo that actually accompanies grilled fish and seafood, not Tex-Mex chips.
