Time 20m

Yield Serves six generously

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/4 pound fresh tomatillos, husked
1 small serrano or 1/2 jalapeño chili
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
10 cilantro sprigs
1 tablespoon chopped onion, soaked in cold water for five minutes, drained and rinsed
1 garlic clove, peeled
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt to taste
Kernels from 2 ears corn
3/4 pound green beans, trimmed and cut in 2-inch lengths about 3 cups
1 large or 2 medium tomatoes, cut in 1/4-inch dice
4 radishes, cut in half lengthwise then sliced thin in half-moons
2 tablespoons minced chives
Lettuce leaves for the platter or bowl
1/4 cup crumbled queso fresco (1 ounce)

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Cover a baking sheet with foil and place the tomatillos on top, stem side down. Place under the broiler at the highest rack setting and broil two to five minutes, until charred on one side. Turn over and broil on the other side for two to five minutes, until charred on the other side. Remove from the heat and transfer to a blender, tipping in any juice that may have accumulated on the baking sheet. Add the chili, lime juice, cilantro sprigs, onion, garlic and olive oil to the blender and blend until smooth. Taste and adjust salt, and set aside.
  • Steam the corn kernels (or steam the entire ear, then cut the kernels off) and beans above one inch of boiling water for five minutes, until tender. Remove from the heat, refresh with cold water and drain on paper towels. Place in a bowl and toss with the tomato, radishes, chives and the dressing. Line a platter or wide bowl with the lettuce leaves, top with the salad, sprinkle on the crumbled cheese and serve.

BLACK BEAN, CORN AND RED PEPPER SALAD WITH CHILE-LIME DRESSING



Black Bean, Corn and Red Pepper Salad With Chile-Lime Dressing image

This recipe was in the Seattle Times August 20, 2008. It's different from other black bean and corn salads I think because of the lime juice. When I made it, I used only one can of beans and that was plenty for us. I also used garlic salt instead of regular salt. This is a very good and refreshing salad that goes well with Mexican food. I think it would also be good with a couple of fresh, seeded, and minced jalapenos added.

THREE-BEAN SALAD WITH CORIANDER CHILI DRESSING



Three-Bean Salad with Coriander Chili Dressing image

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound dried black beans, picked over
1 pound dried white beans, picked over
2 garlic cloves
2 bottled pickled jalapeño chilies, seeded if desired (wear rubber gloves)
2 cups loosely packed fresh coriander, rinsed and spun dry
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup vegetable oil
1 pound green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
Note: It is important to soak and cook the black beans and the white beans separately because one bean variety can become mushy in the few minutes it takes another to become tender.

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan combine the black beans with triple their volume of cold water and in another large saucepan combine the white beans with the same proportion of cold water. Bring the water to a boil and simmer the beans, uncovered, for 2 minutes. Remove the pans from the heat and let the beans soak for 1 hour. Drain each pan of beans separately in a colander. In each pan put 2 1/2 quarts water and stir the black beans into the water in one pan, the white beans into the water in the other. Cook the beans at a bare simmer, testing for doneness every 5 minutes, for 15 to 40 minutes, or until they are just tender but still hold their shape. Drain the beans and let them cool to warm.
  • In a blender purée 1 of the garlic cloves, the jalapeños, and 1 cup of the coriander with 1/3 cup of the lemon juice, 2/3 cup of the oil, and salt to taste, scraping down the side of the blender, until the dressing is smooth. In a very large bowl toss the beans with the dressing and let them marinate, covered and chilled, stirring occasionally, overnight. The salad may be prepared up to this point 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled.
  • In a saucepan of boiling salted water boil the green beans for 5 minutes, or until they are crisp-tender, and drain them in a colander. Refresh the beans under cold water and pat them dry. In the blender purée the remaining garlic clove and the remaining 1 cup coriander with the remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice, the remaining 1/3 cup oil, and salt to taste, scraping down the side of the blender, until the dressing is smooth. Add the green beans and the dressing to the bowl of dressed beans, toss the salad well, and serve at room temperature.

Tips:

  • For a smoky flavor, grill the corn on the cob before cutting it off the cob.
  • Use fresh, in-season corn and beans for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have Curtis Chili Dressing, you can make your own by combining mayonnaise, ketchup, chili powder, and cumin.
  • To make the salad ahead of time, cook the corn and beans and let them cool completely. Then, combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Serve the salad cold.
  • Garnish the salad with chopped cilantro, green onions, or crumbled cotija cheese before serving.

Conclusion:

This corn and bean salad is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for summer cookouts and potlucks. The sweet corn and beans are complemented by the creamy Curtis Chili Dressing, and the salad is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a new salad recipe, give this one a try.
