    How do you preserve or keep this multiple days?

    I do a similar pico every year and yeah its a ton of knife work but thats what makes is special IMO.

    My recipe is very diff tho.

    6-8 Black Krim, 3 big yellow & 3 big red heirlooms, then half of a red onion, half a white onion, one bunch of cilantro, 4 wax peppers, 2 big Anaheims, 4 big poblanos, 6 jalapenos, 4 Serranos, lots of sea salt.

    Will have to try it with limes I’ve never gone that way! I like a pepper forward – low onion flavor and hence the poblanos which really give it one.
