CORN SALSA
This colorful salsa is worth the extra time it takes to grill the ears of corn. Its great with chips, but the flavor goes well with barbecued meats, too.
NANCY HORSBURGH EVERETT, ON
PREP: 30 MIN. GRILL: 20 MIN. + COOLING MAKES: ABOUT 2 1/2 CUPS
2 medium ears sweet corn in husks
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon finely chopped green pepper
1 tablespoon finely chopped sweet red pepper
1 teaspoon minced seeded jalapeno pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash pepper
Tortilla chips
Peel back husks of corn but dont remove; remove silk. Replace husks and tie with kitchen string. Place corn in a bowl and cover with water; soak for 20 minutes. Drain. Grill corn, covered, over medium-high heat for 20-35 minutes or until husks are blackened and corn is tender, turning several times. Cool.
Remove corn from cobs and place in a bowl. Add tomatoes, onion, cilantro, lime juice, peppers, salt and pepper. Serve with tortilla chips.
NOTE Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
