INSTRUCTIONS
Light a medium-hot fire in an outdoor grill. While grill is heat, bring a
large pot of water to a boil. Shuck the corn and boil for 2 mins. Remove
corn and let dry. Brush with mayonnaise to coat lightly. Grill the corn,
turning til lightly brown all over ( 3 to 5 mins). As soon as the ears are
cool enough to handle, cut the corn kernels from the cobs.
Remove the papery out skin of the tomatillos. Drop the tomatillos into a
saucepan of boiling water and cook for 30 seconds. Drain and pate dry.
Finely dice the tomatillos.
Toast the cumin seeds over medium heat in a small dry skillet, shaking the
pan often, til seeds are fragrant and slightly darkened (about 2 mins).
Crush seeds.
In a medium bowl, combine the grilled corn, tomatillos and toasted cumin,
with all the remaining ingredients. Stir to mix well. Serve the salsa at
room temp.
