General Salsa Making Tip: Jalapenos are the most recognizable and widely used of all Mexican chiles. Almost every Mexican table will not be without a small bowl of jalapenos from a can, pickled in escabeche with carrots and onions.

1 pound ripe purple or red plums (about 4 large), diced (about 3 cups)
1/3 cup minced red onion
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh mint leaves
1 teaspoon minced seeded fresh jalapeño (wear rubber gloves)
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons sugar, or to taste

In a bowl, stir together the plums, onion, cilantro, mint, jalapeño, lime juice and sugar. Salt and pepper to taste.
