- Finely chop the red onion and jalapeño and place them in a bowl.
- Add the sugar, vinegar, lime juice, and salt, and toss thoroughly so the sugar dissolves. This will begin to slightly pickle the onion and jalapeño, making them a bit less abrasive and intense in the salsa.
- Let that rest for at least fifteen minutes, though the longer the better.
- Toss in the cilantro, black beans, and corn.
- Taste and check if additional salt is needed.
- Chill until ready to serve with tortilla chips, or even atop tacos or nachos.
Notes
This recipe incorporates a quick pickling of the red onions and jalapeño which doubles as a "vinaigrette" for the salsa
