If this recipe has you raising an eyebrow or two, don't skip over it. This uncommon pairing is quite simply divine. The brightness of fresh clementine juice punches up the flavors of the salsa just as a squeeze of lime would, but here the chopped fruit figures in two. Consider it a sweet, acid tomato substitute. Keep this mild or make it spicy by adding a minced jalapeño or serrano to the mix. If you are cilantro-averse, other tender herbs will work here. Try oregano, basil, or flat-leaf parsley. Jicama is a crunchy vegetable stand-in for the usual tortilla chips. This dip would also make a nice relish for a piece of grilled chicken or pork.
Ingredients:
  • 2 small clementines, seedless
  • ½ cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tbsp cilantro, chopped
  • 2 tsp uncooked red onions, chopped, finely chopped
  • ½ tsp fresh lime juice
  • ¼ tsp ground cumin
  • 1 pinch table salt
  • ¼ small uncooked jicama, peeled, cut into triangles or half moons
