Vinagrete is a bright, chunky Brazilian salsa that livens up grilled meats, sandwiches, or rice with its fresh tomatoes, crisp peppers, and a tangy wine-vinegar dressing.

Method

Wash the produce

Rinse the Tomatoes, Onion, Green Bell Peppers, and Parsley under cool running water, then pat everything dry with a clean towel so the vinagrete stays bright, not watery.

Dice everything small

Cut out any tough tomato cores, peel the onion, and remove the bell pepper stem and seeds. Dice the tomatoes, onion, and bell pepper into small, even pieces, then finely chop the parsley so it mixes through every bite.

Mix the dressing

Add the diced vegetables and parsley to a medium bowl. Pour in White Wine Vinegar, Olive Oil, and Water, then season with Salt and Black Pepper. Stir gently for about 1 minute until everything looks glossy and lightly coated.

Rest the vinagrete

Cover the bowl and let the vinagrete sit for 10 minutes at room temperature so the onion softens a little and the flavors come together. Give it a quick stir before moving on.

Serve the vinagrete

Taste once more and adjust with a little more salt or pepper if you like. Spoon the vinagrete into a serving bowl and serve it at room temperature, or chill it briefly if you want it extra crisp.
