Ingredients

  • 2 ears (about 1 ½ cups of kernels) corn on the cob peeled and silks removed
  • 1 mango peeled and diced
  • 2 Roma tomatoes deseeded and diced
  • 1 jalapeño pepper minced
  • ¼ large red onion finely diced
  • ½ cup cilantro chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, add the peeled ears of corn on the cob and reduce the heat to medium. Simmer the corn for 4-5 minutes or until tender. Remove the corn from the water and allow it to cool for a few minutes before handling. Once cool enough to touch, shuck the corn and add the cooked kernels to a mixing bowl.
    2 ears (about 1 ½ cups of kernels) corn on the cob
  • Chop the mango, tomatoes, jalapeño, red onion, and cilantro into bite-sized pieces and add them to the mixing bowl along with the corn.
    1 mango, 2 Roma tomatoes, 1 jalapeño pepper, ¼ large red onion, ½ cup cilantro
  • Squeeze the juice of one lime and sprinkle kosher salt over the chopped vegetables. Stir well to combine.
    Juice of 1 lime, ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • Cover the mixing bowl with a lid, beeswax wrap, or plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe ingredients. Using fresh, ripe fruits and vegetables, especially when they're in season, makes this mango corn salsa so flavorful and delicious.
  • Chop the vegetables evenly. You want to chop all of the vegetables to be roughly the same size so your salsa blends together nicely.
  • Storage: Store salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Salsa can be frozen for up to 3 months, but the texture and flavor may change.
