Corn and Black Bean Salsa Aka Cowboy Salsa image

This is a refreshing salsa that can be served as an appetizer with tortilla chips (lime flavored are really good), as a salad or over rice. Quick and easy, amounts are approximate. I have used canned diced tomatoes when fresh tomatoes are not as tasty.

Tips:

Choose fresh corn on the cob. The fresher the corn, the sweeter and more flavorful it will be.
Remove the husks and silks from the corn. Pull back the husks and remove the silks by hand, or use a vegetable brush to scrub them off.
Cook the corn on the cob in a large pot of boiling water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then add the corn and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the corn is tender.
Add seasonings to the corn while it is cooking. You can add salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or other seasonings to the water to flavor the corn.
Serve the corn on the cob with butter, sour cream, or other toppings. You can also sprinkle the corn with grated Parmesan cheese or crumbled bacon.
