CORN, RED PEPPERS, RED ONIONS & APPLES
Level 1
Medley Relish
Serves 2-4
- a Nancy Gershman creation -
Instead of wrapping up those measly cuttings of corn, peppers and onions in cellophane, combine the three for this fresh and crunchy relish, sweetened by apple and deepened by that last drop of rum. Use Medley Relish as a topping over grilled fish or chicken.
1 cup cooked corn kernels, cut from the cob
1 cup bruised apples, good parts cubed (peeling, optional)
1 cup cooked or raw red peppers, chopped
2 tsp. rum
2 tsp. ginger, freshly grated or dried
½ cup cooked or raw red onions, chopped
1 Tbsp. olive oil
2 tsp. red or white vinegar (or more to taste)
Kosher salt to taste
Sprigs of cilantro
Toss all ingredients together, and chill for one hour or longer. Garnish with cilantro leaves.
Prepping tip for corn: To slice corn off the cob, use a knife without serrated edges, or you risk shredding the kernels and leaking out all their delicious juices.
