• Preheat grill for high heat. Remove silks from corn, but leave the husks.
• Place corn on the preheated grill. Cook, turning occasionally, 20 minutes, or until tender. Remove from heat, cool slightly, and discard husks.
• Cut the corn kernels from the cob, and place in a medium bowl. Mix in the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and red onion.
• In a blender or food processor, mix the cilantro, olive oil, garlic, lime juice, sugar, salt, pepper, and hot sauce. Blend until smooth, and stir into the corn salad.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a roasting pan, combine corn kernels & sliced garlic & mix well.
• Drizzle olive oil over the corn, then add the water, salt & pepper, mixing well.
• Roast corn & garlic, uncovered for 20 minutes.
• In a bowl, combine tomatoes, corn/garlic mixture, lime juice, jalapeno & cilantro.
• Stir well, then let the salsa stand for 1 hour at room temperature to develop the flavors.
• Serve salsa immediately or store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days ~ It is, however, best the day it's made!

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 500 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Move the oven rack to it's highest position. Cut the kernels from the corn then spread onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Spritz the corn lightly with cooking spray then season with garlic salt and freshly ground black pepper. Roast for approximately 12-15 minutes or until golden. Keep a close eye on the corn and stir periodically to prevent over browning. Set the roasted corn aside to cool slightly. Cut and remove the seeds from the jalapeno pepper using a teaspoon. Always wash your hands well after handling peppers. Finely dice the jalapeno, red onion, and red pepper. Dice and seed the roma tomatoes and chop the cilantro. In a small mixing bowl whisk together the oil, honey and 1/4 cup of lime juice then add the diced vegetables to the bowl. Add the roasted corn to the veggies and mix well. At this point, I like to taste the salsa so I can adjust the seasonings and add a little more lime juice if needed. I usually add a little more garlic salt and pepper but, it's your party, so season the salsa to your taste. Serve chilled or room temperature with tortilla chips, as a topping for tacos/quesadillas or on a taco salad. Yield: 2 cups Cook's note: If you use aluminum foil instead of parchment paper, spray it lightly with cooking spray to avoid sticking. It's not necessary to do this with parchment paper.

Steps:

• Add the tomatoes, corn, poblano, onions and garlic cloves to the prepared baking sheet. Toss with the canola oil and sprinkle with salt. Roast for 15 minutes. Remove the garlic, flip the poblano and corn over and continue roasting for another 15 minutes, until charred and the tomatoes have softened and begun to split. Let cool for at least 20 minutes.
• Peel the garlic. Remove the skin and stem from the poblano (remove the seeds, too, for a milder salsa).
• Add the roasted tomatoes, poblano, onions and garlic to a food processor, along with the cilantro, jalapeno, coriander, cumin, 2 tablespoons lime juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Process until the mixture is evenly combined but still has some texture (similar to crushed canned tomatoes). Remove to a bowl.
