Something Edible on Video: Seriously Super Simple Corn and Black Bean Salsa in Less Than Ten Minutes

Abstract:

Has this ever happened to you? You're right in the middle of laying out a great Tex-Mex feast when you realize that you've got nothing in the fridge that'll properly adorn a tortilla chip. No sweat! So long as you keep just a few basic ingredients in your pantry and a bag of corn in your freezer, you can throw together a quick and super-easy corn and black bean salsa faster than you can open the cans. Double-check your labels, but in most cases this recipe is not only vegan, but gluten free as well, so even if you're stuck having to throw something together at the last minute for a gathering of friends and family, you'll have something that everyone can eat!

What's Canned and Bagged

  • 12 oz frozen corn (That's one standard bag) Thawed and drained.
  • 15 oz canned black beans (One standard can) Drained and rinsed.
  • 10 oz canned diced tomatoes and chiles drained (Talking about Ro-Tel here.)
  • 12 canned black olives Sliced (It'll be about 1/4 cup's worth.)
  • The Dressing

  • 2 Tbsps cider vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tsps adobo from canned chipotles
  • 1 Tbsp demerara sugar
  • 1 tsp Kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper ground fresh
  • 1/4 tsp cumin ground
  • 1/4 tsp coriander ground
  • 2 Tbsps fresh cilantro minced (or 1 Tbsp dried)
  • 1 clove garlic Minced fine.

  • Dump the thawed and drained corn, rinsed and drained beans, the drained tomatoes and chiles, and the sliced olives into a large bowl.  In a smaller bowl, whisk together the cider vinegar, olive oil, adobo, demerara sugar, salt, black pepper, cumin, coriander, cilantro,and garlic. Let it all adjust in the bowl for about 5 minutes before giving it  another whisk to fully integrate. Stir the dressing into the veg and beans and serve immediately, or pop in the fridge until you're ready to do so.
