Corn Salsa Recipe

Ingredients:

4 large ears of fresh corn
1 large onion, chopped
1 large green or red pepper, chopped
1 large tomato, chopped
1 jalepeno pepper, chopped
1/2 c. lime juice
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. pepper

 

If you have never cut the kernels off of an ear of corn before, don’t worry, it’s really easy. First remove the husks from the corn. Use a vegetable brush to scrub the ears of corn to remove any remaining corn silk. Rinse the ears of corn.

 

Using a sharp knife, hold an ear of corn at an angle and slide the knife down the length of the corn cob, cutting off the kernels of corn into a bowl. Press firmly, but do not press so hard that you cut into the corn cob. You just want the corn kernels.

After you have scraped the corn cobs, measure 2 cups of corn kernels. In a large sauce pan, combine the 2 c. corn kernels, onion, bell pepper, tomato, jalapeno pepper, lime juice, salt, cumin, and black pepper.

 

Bring the mixture to a boil and reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for about 10 minutes.

 

Ladle the hot salsa mixture into sterilized pint sized canning jars, leaving 1/2-inch head space. You can easily measure the headspace with this inexpensive canning funnel.

 

Wipe the rims of the jars with a damp towel, and then place the sterilized lids and rings on the jars.

 

Place the jars in a boiling water canner, and then cover the jars with water so that there is 1-2 inches of water covering the jars. Bring the water to a boil.

 

Process the jars for 15 minutes. Remove the jars from the canner and let cool on a towel on the kitchen counter. Make sure the jars have sealed before storing. Unsealed jars can be placed in the refrigerator and should be eaten in the next couple weeks.

 

Your jars of corn salsa can be stored for 1-2 years.

  1. I am new to canning. If I us 1/2 pint jars, do I still water bath for 15 minutes?


  2. Hi! Thanks for catching that πŸ™‚ It should have said the lime juice provides the acid for the recipe, not the vinegar. I made that change. Thanks! πŸ™‚
