Tips:

  • Use fresh corn: Fresh corn on the cob is best for this relish, but you can also use frozen or canned corn in a pinch.
  • Char the corn: Charring the corn adds a smoky, roasted flavor to the relish. You can char the corn over a grill, in a grill pan, or even under a broiler.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for red onion, bell pepper, and jalapeƱo, but you can use any vegetables you like. Some other good options include tomatoes, zucchini, and squash.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: The vegetables should be cooked until they are tender-crisp. If you overcook them, they will become mushy.
  • Add some acid: Acid helps to balance out the sweetness of the corn and vegetables. You can add acid in the form of vinegar, lemon juice, or lime juice.
  • Season to taste: Season the relish with salt, pepper, and any other spices you like. Taste the relish before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.
