Name: Pico De Gallo (Roosters Beak)
Ingredients: 6 Navel oranges; peeled, sectioned, and chopped; 1 md Sized jicama*; peeled and chopped; Salt; Cayenne Pepper

We should never be angry but at sin, and this should always be that which we oppose in our anger. And when our spirits are stirred to oppose this evil, it should be as sin, or chiefly as it is against God. If there be no sin and no fault, then we have no cause to be angry; and if there be a fault or sin, then it is infinitely worse as against God than it is as against us, and therefore it requires the most opposition on that account. Persons sin in their anger when they are selfish in it; for we are not to act as if we were our own, or for ourselves simply, since we belong to God, and not to ourselves. When a fault is committed wherein God is sinned against, and persons are injured by it, they should be chiefly concerned, and their spirits chiefly moved against it, because it is against God; for they should be more solicitous for God's honor than for their own temporal interests.

INSTRUCTIONS

I agree with Rich. Real Mexican "Pico de Gallo" is a very simple recipe
using ground dried chiles as a condiment with various fruits. One of the
simplest is found in "The Complete Book of Mexican Cooking" by Elizabeth
Lambert Ortiz, copyright 1965 by The Conde Nast Publications Inc. It goes
as follows:
Mix the jicama and oranges together, and season with salt and cayenne to
taste.
* Very tart cooking apples may be substituted for the jicama, although the
results may be less than perfect, since jicama has a unique flavor that is
not easily duplicated.
I tried this recipe, substituting Jim Campbell's apple smoked habinero
powder for cayenne and it tasted great. (Usual disclaimers apply) ;{)
