You can easily adapt the ingredients in this recipe to what you have on hand or to taste. I'm sure frozen corn could be used and I want to try fresh corn next year. Why didn't I think of that when it was in season??
This keeps well for several days and I think it gets better after the flavors have blended a day or two.
It's very addictive!!!
Corn and Bean Salsa
Drain and Rinse: 1 can white corn 1 can yellow corn 1 can black beans 1 can blackeyed peas Dice:1 green pepper 1/2 of a red onion 1 jalapeno or hot pepper finely chopped Mix together: 1/2 cup sugar (I use a little less) 1/4 cup dried cilantro (I use parsley) 3 Tbsp hot sauce or to taste. (I like Franks Red Hot) 1/2 cup vinegar 1/4 cup oil salt and pepper to taste. Make this sweet or hot to your own liking. Pour this over the rest of the ingredients. I think this is best if you let the flavors blend overnight. |
I could certainly be addicted to this... Sounds fabulous, Pearl..... Thanks for the recipe.
