Categories     Appetizer     Dips     Snack

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 fresh mangoes (ripe but not overripe)
¼ tsp cumin
¼ tsp chili powder
¼ tsp kosher salt
¼ tsp black pepper
1 can black beans (15.25 oz) (drained and rinsed)
1 red bell pepper (seeded and chopped)
⅓ cup red onion (finely diced)
1 to 2 garlic cloves (minced)
1 habanero (seeded and finely diced (SEE NOTES))
1 tbsp fresh cilantro (chopped)
1 lime (juiced)

Steps:

  • Chop mangoes into small cubes, using the instructions in the post above as a guide, and place them into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
  • Add cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper to the chopped mango. Stir and allow the salt to extract the mango's juices while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
  • Carefully open the can of black beans, drain it, and rinse it until the water runs clear. Add them to the mango bowl.
  • Finely chop, mince, and dice the rest of the ingredients, adding them to the bowl as well. The finer you dice, the more it'll look and feel like a blended salsa.The larger you dice, the more it'll look and feel like a chunky pico de gallo.
  • Juice the lime over the bowl and mix to combine everything.
  • Allow the salsa to sit in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving so the flavors can mix together. Serve with tortilla chips or spooned on top of grilled chicken, fish, or steak.

JEFF'S FRESH BLACK BEAN SALSA



Jeff's Fresh Black Bean Salsa image

Provided by Jeff Corwin

Categories     appetizer

Time 50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large sweet Vidalia onion, diced
2 to 3 fresh limes, juiced
1 tablespoon kosher salt
4 large or 5 small ears fresh corn, shucked (or substitute 1 1/2 cups defrosted frozen corn)
2 (28-ounce) cans good quality whole peeled tomatoes (recommended: Tuttorosso brand)
2 cans black beans, drained and rinsed (recommended: Goya)
1 large green pepper, diced
1 cup chopped cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 habanero or Scotch bonnet pepper, finely minced with seeds (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix together the diced onion, juice of 2 limes, and kosher salt. Let stand at room temperature for 10 to 20 minutes (this will soften the bite of the onion).
  • In a large pot with a steamer insert add about 2 inches of water. Add the corn and steam until just cooked through, about 5 to 8 minutes. Then shock the corn in cold water until cool to the touch. With a paring knife, carefully shave off the niblets onto a cutting board. A good way to do this is to slice off about 1/2-inch of the end of the corn cob. Hold the cob upright with the flat end on the board and shave with knife tip pointed downward at 4 o'clock. Don't cut into the cob. Tweeze and pick through the kernels with fingers, pulling out wayward strands of corn silk. While nothing beats fresh corn for this recipe (and this is a lot easier than it sounds) a close second is a good quality frozen corn. NEVER USE CANNED CORN!
  • Pour the tomatoes into a colander over the sink, and with your hands squeeze out the liquid without overly squishing them. Loosely chop the tomatoes into 1/2-inch chunks.
  • Toss the corn, tomatoes, black beans, green pepper, cilantro, cumin, and habanero into the bowl with the marinated onions. Taste and add more lime juice, salt, cumin, hot pepper or even more cilantro, if needed.

SUPER EASY BLACK BEAN, CORN, AND ZUCCHINI SALSA



Super Easy Black Bean, Corn, and Zucchini Salsa image

I love black bean and corn salsa, but almost everyone makes it with onions (which I won't eat raw). I found recipe#117812 and ran with it for this salsa. The key is having good salsa. If you don't like it hot omit the pepper and use mild salsa. Experiment with jalapeno, serrano, habanero, the possibilities are endless. If you do, use hot salsa and add peppers one at a time until desired heat. This is also great with 3/4 cup Mexican cheese blend. I hope you enjoy. TIP:Always rinse canned beans, it drastically reduces the sodium.
