Chojín Alma Guillermoprieto of Cambridge, Massachusetts, writes: "My guatemalan grandmother made a salad she called chojín. I remember the taste vividly, but when I went to Guatemala, no one knew the dish. This is my attempt to re-create it."

While the ingredients in this recipe are extremely simple, the result is an eye-opening explosion of flavors.

Cooks' note:

Chojín, without pork rinds and peanuts, can be chilled up to 1 day.
