Sprinkle tomatoes with a pinch of kosher salt and place in a non-reactive colander to drain. I usually do this in my salad spinner. Allow this to sit at room temperature for 15-30 minutes, this will drain some of the juices from tomatoes, making the salsa less runny, while gently infusing them with the salt.
In the meantime, place your onions in another bowl and squeeze the lime juice over the onions and sprinkle with a pinch of kosher salt. This will take some of the potency away from the onions and infuse them with flavour. Allow to sit at room temperature for 15-30 minutes.
Add your drained tomatoes to the bowl with the onions. Fold in cilantro or parsley, jalapenos and optional bell pepper, if using. Season to taste with kosher salt. Serve right away or store in the fridge until needed.
