🥭 What Makes Mango Salsa Perfect for Seafood?

Seafood — especially rich varieties like king salmon or Dungeness crab — benefits from contrast:

• Sweet mango balances savory seafood

• Lime juice adds brightness

• Red onion & cilantro bring aromatic depth

• Optional chili adds a hint of heat

This combination creates a balanced flavor profile that enhances everything from sushi to seafood platters.
