Notes
- If you don’t have roasted frozen corn, you can take 2 (15-ounce) cans of corn kernels and cook them in the air fryer for 10 minutes at 400 degrees, shaking the basket or filliping the kernels halfway through.

- Use the freshest ingredients: This homemade corn salsa requires only a simple, short ingredients list, so it’s important to use good-quality, fresh, in-season (where possible) ingredients for the best flavor.
- Cut fine, uniform pieces: This will ensure a consistent and even distribution of all the flavors and a better overall mouthfeel.
- Customize the heat: Make it milder with a mild pepper/less jalapeno. Add some seeds or a hotter pepper (serrano, poblano) for hotter chili corn salsa.
