# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • This dip comes together in minutes, saving your nerves when guests arrive early.
  • Its punchy flavors and freshness mean you barely need a recipe card to impress anyone.
02 -
  • Don’t skip rinsing the beans—otherwise your dip turns murky, and the texture isn’t nearly as nice.
  • Once I used salsa instead of pico, and while still tasty, it lost the chunky freshness I love.
03 -
  • Let the dip rest for fifteen minutes in the fridge before serving to harmonize flavors.
  • A light squeeze of lime just before serving wakes up every ingredient.
