Wash the radishes thoroughly. Trim off the stems and roots, then dice them into small cubes.
Dice the tomatoes into small, even-sized pieces. Remove the seeds if desired for a less watery salsa.
Finely chop the red onion and cilantro. If using a jalapeño, dice it finely and adjust the amount based on your heat preference.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced radishes, tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño (if using).
Add the lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until well combined.
Let the Chimol sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve immediately as a topping, side dish, or dip.
