BLACK BEAN AND CORN SALAD - SPICY MEXICAN SALAD/SIDE DISH
A spicy, crisp, fresh vegetable salad. This salad should be made several hours before it is served....to marinate the vegetables and blend the flavors. I personally don't cook the corn I cut from the cobb, just a personal preference. If corn isn't in season a good quality frozen corn is a perfect substitution - I don't even defrost it! The produce you use should be top quality for a superior result.

I could honestly eat this for days in a row...nothing else. It's a great combination of sweet corn and black beans and lots of other tasty things! It's worth the bit of mincing and is a great dish to make ahead of time. This can be served as a salad, but I've always made it as an appetizer dip, served with tortilla chips.

Tips:
- Choosing and Preparing Black Beans: For the best flavor and texture, use dried black beans that have been soaked and cooked until tender. You can also use canned black beans, but be sure to rinse and drain them well before using.
- Freshness is Key: When selecting ingredients for the salad, aim for the freshest produce you can find. This will ensure the best flavor and nutritional value.
- Spice It Up: Adjust the amount of jalapeño pepper and chipotle powder to your preferred level of spiciness. For a milder salad, remove the seeds from the jalapeño pepper before dicing.
- Add Crunch: For added texture, consider incorporating chopped red onion, bell pepper, or celery into the salad.
- Creating a Flavorful Dressing: Make sure to whisk the dressing ingredients thoroughly to emulsify the oil and vinegar. This will ensure a well-blended and flavorful dressing.
- Garnish for Presentation: Before serving, sprinkle some chopped fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice over the salad. This will add a pop of color and brightness to the dish.
