Choosing the right peaches
The first step in making this peach avocado salsa is, of course, picking up some fresh produce! It’s important to pick fruits that aren’t too ripe so that they’re not mushy when mixed together. In this salsa be sure to choose peaches that have a slightly sweet smell, but are on the firmer side. They should still have a little bit of give when you press them.
