Steps:
- Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack at about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Cut the peppers in half from top to bottom; remove the stem, seeds, and ribs, then place the peppers cut-side-down onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has blackened and blistered, about 5 minutes. Place the blackened peppers into a bowl, and tightly seal with plastic wrap. Allow the peppers to steam as they cool, about 20 minutes. Once cool, remove the skins and discard. Transfer the roasted peppers to a blender or food processor. Add the red wine vinegar, olive oil, and salt; process until smooth.

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

- Roast the peppers before using: Roasting the peppers brings out their natural sweetness and flavor.
- Use a variety of bell peppers: Feel free to mix and match different colors of bell peppers to create a more colorful and flavorful dressing.
- Add some heat: If you like your dressing with a little bit of a kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
- Make it creamy: If you prefer a creamier dressing, add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, or thyme, will add a pop of flavor to your dressing.
- Let the dressing chill before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld together.
