AVOCADO AND CORN SALSA

Categories     Condiment/Spread     Tomato     Vegetable     Appetizer     No-Cook     Super Bowl     Backyard BBQ     Avocado     Corn     Summer     Sugar Conscious     Vegan     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Dairy Free     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield Makes 2 to 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ripe avocado, cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 to 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 ripe red tomato, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 ear sweet corn, shucked
1 scallion, both white and green parts, trimmed and finely chopped, or 3 tablespoons diced sweet onion
1 to 2 jalapeño peppers or serrano peppers, seeded and minced (for a hotter salsa, leave the seeds in)
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Coarse salt (kosher or sea) and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Place the avocado in the bottom of a nonreactive mixing bowl and gently toss it with 2 tablespoons of the lime juice. Spoon the tomato on top of the avocado.
  • 2. Cut the kernels off the corn. The easiest way to do this is to lay the cob flat on a cutting board and remove the kernels using lengthwise strokes of a chef's knife. Add the corn kernels to the mixing bowl. The salsa can be prepared to this stage up to 2 hours ahead. Refrigerate it, covered.
  • 3. Just before serving, add the jalapeño(s) and cilantro to the mixing bowl and gently toss to mix. Taste for seasoning, adding more lime juice as necessary and season with salt and pepper to taste; the salsa should be highly seasoned.

Tips:

  • Choose the right corn: Use fresh corn on the cob for the best flavor. If you're using frozen corn, thaw it completely before using.
  • Roast the corn: Roasting the corn adds a smoky flavor and helps to bring out its natural sweetness.
  • Use ripe avocados: Ripe avocados are creamy and have a mild flavor that pairs well with the corn.
  • Add some spice: If you like a little heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the dip.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh cilantro or basil adds a pop of color and flavor to the dip.

Conclusion:

This fresh corn and avocado dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It's perfect for summer gatherings or potlucks. The combination of sweet corn, creamy avocados, and tangy lime juice is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dip, give this recipe a try.
