NOTES

How to Make the Chipotle-Style Version: If you want that famous Chipotle corn salsa flavor, roasting is the secret. Roast or char a poblano pepper until blistered, peel off the skin, remove the seeds, and finely dice it. Swap it for one jalapeño or add it alongside for a deeper roasted chile taste. You can also sauté the corn in olive oil until lightly charred. That smoky, roasted flavor is what really sets it apart.
