Corn & Tomato Salsa w/porn and heat...

Forget about growing tomatoes this year. I’m being given more than I can use, and as long as I can buy fresh corn I’ll turn it into anything I can dream of.

1/2 red (bermuda) onion diced small
4 cooked ears worth of sweet corn kernels
6 ripe plum tomatoes seeded and diced
1/4 cup of basil chiffenade (about 12 leaves)
1/8 cup of cilantro chiffenade (large pinch of whole leaves)
6 scallions green and whites sliced thin
juice of 1 lime
1 1/2 small green habanero chiles, seeded and very finely diced (about 1 Tbsp)
salt and black pepper to taste
3oz EVO

mix well. I tried to avoid completely breaking up the corn. Check for seasoning and oil.

It’s a really nice mix of heat & sweet & savory.

so where’s the ‘porn and heat’?

Looks fantastic, Mark and right for summer.

Photos and habaneros silly.

What you want I should put some on one of those models from NSFW and photograph that?

Now if I could get a little closer to Mel Hill’s level of skill wit da camera, then I’d really be cooking.

Made this again following my recipe pretty much to the letter, but doubling the quantity. My habaneros (Red Caribbean) are ripening now so instead of 1 1/2 little green ones, I used this bad boy.

The interplay of sweet and heat with the herbs and lime juice really works nicely. I think I’ll serve this with crab cakes Thursday night.

I don’t know what you are talking about. I’d hit that in a second!

Yes.

There isnt much out there that is better than a fresh salsa.
