"During the summer when corn is in season, I look for any excuse to buy it, it’s so wonderfully sweet! We’ll have itin chowder, salad, grilled, andof course, simply on the cob. Corn also makes a fabulous salsa. The sweetness of the corn balances the acidity from the lime juice. Along with some jalapeño, red onion, cilantro, and oregano, it’s a fiesta of flavor. Althoughnot the kind of salsa that one can easily balance on a chip (though that doesn’t stop us from trying), it’s terrific as a side to any southwestern dishes like tacos and enchiladas, or a straight up side with chicken or steak.It would be great to serve for a game-day party or summer potluck. A friend told me that corn salsa is one of the most popular menu items at Chipotle. I’m not surprised! (This one is better.)..."
