The texture would be impacted. Ice crystals break down the cell walls of the raw vegetables, meaning it will lose its crisp crunch. Cilantro turns dark and limp, and the tomatoes release extra liquid. My preference is for fresh!

Hi Angie, simple, fresh ingredients can make such a difference when making recipes like this! I’m so glad you enjoyed it.

I have made this twice in the last 4 days with fresh garden tomatoes. My family loves it! Definitely better than any store bought Pico.

Hi Debbie, lime juice is going to be the best! I would say you could use white vinegar in a pinch.

I agree with you on using fresh cilantro. The dried cilantro didn’t give me that fresh cilantro flavor.

Hi Nathan, you need 1/3 the amount when using dried herbs, but I do think that fresh is best in this particular recipe.
