Fresh Tomato Salsa With Peppers

Fresh tomato salsa with chile peppers features a variety of peppers, and you can make it as mild or hot as you like. I like jalapeño peppers in the dish, but if you prefer milder peppers, use all Anaheim or poblano peppers. Plum tomatoes are meaty and offer the best flavor and texture, but feel free to use slicing tomatoes. You could even use grape tomatoes or heirloom tomatoes if that’s what you have.
