Cuisine American
Servings 3 cups

Ingredients
 

  • 1 1/4 cups dill pickles (I use Grillo's hot pickle spears!), small diced
  • 1 1/4 cups roma tomatoes, (Roughly 4 roma tomatoes), blanched, peeled, and small diced (See instructions below on how to blanch them!)
  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper, small diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, small diced
  • 1 jalapeno, minced (Remove seeds if you want it less spicy!)
  • 3 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup pickle brine (the juice from the jar of pickles!)
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • To blanch the tomatoes, cut a small X on the end of the tomatoes, boil them for 30-60 seconds (just until the peels start to peel off), and place them in an ice water bath to stop them from cooking. Then peel and discard the skins!
  • Add all ingredients to a container, stir well, and press a piece of plastic wrap directly on top to keep everything submerged. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, but overnight is best. I HIGHLY recommend letting it rest overnight—the texture and taste will improve so much.
  • Serve with tortilla chips! The pickle de gallo would also taste super yummy on a vegan hotdog, brat, or burger!
