This is literally a farm-to-table corn salsa. Every ingredient (except for olive oil, vinegar, salt, pepper) came fresh from the Boulder Farmers Market.
Ingredients:
- 4 ears of corn, husked
- 2 peppers
- 1 small walla-walla onion (use a vidalia onion or even a yellow onion if there is no sweet onion at your local market)
- 1 pint grape tomatoes (I love buying mine from Ollin Farms)
- 2 TB olive oil
- 1 TB cider vinegar
- pinch of sea salt
- freshly ground black pepper
Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add a pinch of salt, and boil the corn for 2 minutes. Remove from the water and let them cool so you can touch them.
Meanwhile, slice the pepper and onion, toss in a little olive oil, and grill for 5 minutes or so until fragrant and the onion is browned. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
Slice the grape tomatoes in half.
With a sharp knife, pointing away from you, slice the corn off of the cob and into a large bowl. Add the tomatoes. Next, coarsely chop the grilled peppers and onion, and add to the corn tomato mixture. Drizzle with olive oil and vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste. Simple and delicious.
