RECIPE BACKSTORY

Be careful with the lime juice. Too much lime juice spoils the flavor.

For optimum flavor, follow J.D.'s Rule of Garlic: "Always add five times the amount of garlic called for by the recipe." In this case, use five cloves of garlic instead of one clove. You'll thank me for it later.

To vary the heat of the salsa, alter the number of chiles (in particular, the quantity of seeds from the chiles).
