Salsa is one of those recipes that almost seems silly to document because it is so simple, but maybe stone fruit doesn’t come to mind when whipping up a bowl of summer freshness. Either ripe or firm fruit works in salsa. For an alternative to cilantro, you can substitute mint, and you can use any stone fruit you like or a combination of different kinds. Serve with corn chips or on fish tacos.
