Tips

  • Choose the right corn. Fresh, sweet corn on the cob is best for this salsa, but you can also use frozen corn kernels if fresh corn is not available. If using frozen corn, thaw it completely before using.
  • Roast the corn. Roasting the corn adds a smoky, caramelized flavor to the salsa. You can roast the corn on a grill, in a roasting pan in the oven, or in a cast iron skillet.
  • Use a variety of peppers. This recipe calls for jalapeño and serrano peppers, but you can use any type of pepper that you like. If you want a milder salsa, use fewer peppers or remove the seeds. If you want a spicier salsa, use more peppers or leave the seeds in.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables. The vegetables in this salsa should be cooked just until they are tender-crisp. Overcooking them will make them mushy.
  • Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as cilantro and basil, add a lot of flavor to this salsa. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they will not be as flavorful.
  • Season the salsa to taste. Once you have made the salsa, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, lime juice, or cilantro.

Conclusion

Spicy Creamy Corn Salsa is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, a side dish, or a topping for tacos, burritos, and other Mexican dishes. It is also a great way to use up leftover corn on the cob. With its smoky, sweet, and spicy flavors, this salsa is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
