# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The sweet heat combination hits every taste bud at once
  • It transforms ordinary tortilla chips into something guests cannot stop eating
02 -
  • Make this no more than a few hours before serving or the fruit starts breaking down and getting sad
  • Room temperature fruit releases more flavor, so do not use ice cold ingredients straight from the fridge
03 -
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the fruit cleanly, crushing the strawberries releases too much juice
  • The smaller you dice everything, the more flavors blend in each bite
