Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

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
