BLACK BEAN, CORN AND RED PEPPER SALAD WITH CHILE-LIME DRESSING



Black Bean, Corn and Red Pepper Salad With Chile-Lime Dressing image

This recipe was in the Seattle Times August 20, 2008. It's different from other black bean and corn salads I think because of the lime juice. When I made it, I used only one can of beans and that was plenty for us. I also used garlic salt instead of regular salt. This is a very good and refreshing salad that goes well with Mexican food. I think it would also be good with a couple of fresh, seeded, and minced jalapenos added.

Tips for Making the Best Lime Pepper Seasoning

  • Use fresh limes for the best flavor. If you only have bottled lime juice, add a little extra zest to compensate for the lack of fresh flavor.
  • Toast the peppercorns before grinding them. This will bring out their flavor and aroma.
  • Use a variety of peppercorns to create a more complex flavor. Black peppercorns are a good starting point, but you can also add white, green, or pink peppercorns.
  • Experiment with different ratios of lime and pepper to find the perfect balance for your taste.
  • Store the lime pepper seasoning in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. It will keep for up to 6 months.

Conclusion

Lime pepper seasoning is a versatile and flavorful addition to any kitchen. It can be used to add a zesty kick to chicken, fish, vegetables, and even fruit. With its bright citrus flavor and spicy peppercorns, lime pepper seasoning is sure to become a favorite in your spice cabinet.
