Red Pepper And Corn Relish Recipes

SMOKY CORN-RED PEPPER RELISH

Steps:

• Preheat a grill: If using a charcoal grill, make a fire in your grill. When the charcoals are completely covered in gray ash, hold your hand about 5 inches above the grill grid; count how many seconds you can comfortably leave it there. When you can hold your hand above the grill for 2 to 3 seconds, you have medium-high heat and are ready to grill. If you are using a gas grill, heat the grill for 15 minutes with the lid closed. Before beginning to cook, reduce the temperature by turning the knobs to medium-high.
• Place bell pepper on grill and grill on all sides until skin is black and blistered, 8 to 12 minutes. Transfer pepper to a paper bag, fold bag closed, and set aside.
• Place corn on grill and cook on all sides until tender and beginning to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer corn to a cutting board and remove kernels from cob; you should have about 1 1/2 cups kernels. Transfer corn to a medium bowl and set aside.
• When pepper is cool enough to handle, gently peel the skin from the pepper. Cut pepper in half lengthwise; remove seeds, ribs, and stem. Chop pepper.
• Transfer chopped pepper to bowl with corn, along with basil, oil, vinegar, and garlic; toss until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.

CORN RELISH

Steps:

• Mix corn, bell pepper, onion and pimientos in medium heatproof glass or plastic bowl.

ROASTED CORN AND RED PEPPER RELISH

Steps:

• Soak the fresh corn in a pot of cold water for about 1 hour. Preheat the oven to 400?. Place the garlic in a piece of aluminum foil, drizzle with 1 teaspoon of the oil, and wrap tightly. Place the bell pepper on another piece of aluminum foil. Do not wrap. Place the drained corn directly on the oven rack and roast along with the garlic and bell pepper. Remove the corn and garlic after 10 minutes and let cool slightly. Squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins and chop. Husk the corn and, using a sharp knife, cut the kernels off the cobs into a medium size bowl. Roast the bell peper, turning it every few minutes, until almost charred on all sides, for a total of about 15 minutes. Wrap the pepper in the foil and let cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Peel the skin off the pepper, remove the seeds and core, and chop it. Mix the corn with the chopped garlic and bell pepper and add the remaining ingredients. Taste for seasoning, adding more jalapenos if desire. Makes about 2 cups. Recipe from cookbook - Roasting, by Kathy Gurnst ISBN 0-02-051340-2 Recipe by: Roasting, by Kathy Gunst
