I like basically that same recipe except with fresh cilantro.

Mmm... salsa... * blue resists allure.

Oh yes. Fresh is always better, I should have mentioned that. It's just that for a first-time maker, it can be easier to just use dried.

And I should also note that the onion type makes a big difference too--red onions are usually the 'hottest', though that's not quite the right word. If you want a milder onion, use a white or even yellow onion.

I like that recipe, only without the cilantro, because IMO, cilantro spoils otherwise tasty meals. ;)

Fresh ground black pepper or a pinch of cinnamon can be a nice touch as well. If the onion is a really over enthusiastic one, it sometimes helps to let it sit in the lime juice first, I've found.

A finely diced avocado is my personal favorite addition.
