Fresh Fiesta Corn Salsa
Celebrate the sweet, tender flavor of homegrown sweet corn with this colorful salsa. Made with fresh-picked produce from your own backyard, it’s perfect with tortilla chips, spooned over grilled chicken or fish, or served as a colorful side dish. What we really love is how this recipe highlights the crisp textures and vibrant flavors that make homegrown veggies so special!
Ingredients:
- 4 ears sweet corn, kernels removed (We love (sh2) types like Honey ‘n Pearl or Fourth of July corn for this!)
- 2 ripe tomatoes, diced
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 1 small red onion, finely chopped
- 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced (optional)
- ¼ c. fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 lime, juiced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook corn for 3-5 minutes until tender. Allow to cool, then carefully cut kernels from the cob.
- In a large bowl, combine corn kernels, tomatoes, bell pepper, red onion, jalapeño and cilantro.
- Drizzle with lime juice and olive oil, then gently toss until combined.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to blend.
The Gurney’s Difference: Fresh-picked corn is sweetest right after harvest, so bring your ears from the garden straight to the kitchen for the best flavor. If you need to store your ears before using, (se) and (sh2) types keep their sweetness longest after picking.
