Salsa Criolla

It was the New World that gave many tastes to the Old World. This is a classic table salsa in South America. Use a very sharp knife to get thin, thin slices. Better yet, use a mandoline.

• 2 medium red onions , sliced fine, fine, fine
• 1/3 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
• Grated zest of 1 lime
• 1/2 teaspoon white vinegar
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
• Salt to taste.

METHOD

In a small bowl, mix all ingredients together. Serve immediately - both cilantro and lime juice lose their zing rapidly.

Yield: 1 cup
