Notes
Remove the seeds and membranes from the habanero peppers for a milder salsa. If the salsa is too spicy, add more mango or bell pepper to balance it out. Aim for uniform dice of all ingredients to ensure even flavor distribution. Wear gloves to avoid getting the spicy oils on your skin when working with habanero peppers. Always taste and adjust lime juice and salt before serving. For a smooth salsa, mix all of the ingredients in a food processor. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
