    The "Charred Corn Salsa/Relish" recipe seems to be as follows (I wrote it down while watching the show:

    2-3 cups kernels from grilled corn (save husks and cobs for other recipes from this episode
    2 roasted jalapenos, chopped
    1/2 red onion, finely diced
    coarsely chopped cilantro
    1/2 cup fresh lime juice
    olive oil
    salt
    pepper

    All amounts are approximate, but since this isn't cooked or food processed, just put in the amounts that yield a pleasing result. If it's not right, add more.

    Flay also grilled halves of beefsteak tomatoes, topped them with creme fraiche mixed with minced jarred chipotles, and basil leaves

    I only made the Japlapeno pesto, but it was fantastic! I threw in some walnuts instead of pine nuts because my grocery store didn't have any pine nuts, but it didn't make a difference. It was still fantastic! It's good on everything, especially Thanksgiving leftovers.

    Pesto with a twist!!!! I made some changes. I removed the seeds and membrane. Treated the roasted jalapenos the same as roasted red peppers. I grilled the corn, but it didn't yield any milk. I threw in some kernels, and a little bit of cream to stand in for the corn milk. I used the pesto on shrimp that was marinated in curry and white wine, then wrapped in proscuitto. and grilled. Served it all with the roasted corn, turned into a salad with tomatoes, avocados, cilantro and olive oil. I heard...'this is the best meal you've ever made' mumbled in the background. I believe it was this pesto.

    I tried making it from just watching the show. Gotta leave out the jalapenos though. Almost too hot to eat. And I like hot, too. Recipe is not clear about preparing the husks and the corn??

    This snapper is so dang good. I was scared to death of that jalapeno sauce when I touched my tongue to it after I mixed it all up in the blender, but when you add it to the snapper in a light layer, it is ridiculously good.

    I used banana leaves to wrap the snapper in, which I suppose is the same concept, but probably gives the snapper a sweeter taste, or some kind of different taste.

    The bomb recipe! Thanks.

    I knew that I should've taken the seeds out. It was way too hot....too hot to eat and I like spicy foods. It's so hot that the flavors are overpowered by the heat. Next time I will use only 2 jalapenos and remove the seeds. I'm going to add some sour cream to it and hopefully that will make it edible and remove some of the heat.

    This recipe should not be rated as easy. If making this recipe make sure that the corn you pick have nice big husk, or better yet purchase corn husks in the mexican food section. The recipe is so HOT we could not eat it. Cut the jalepenos to 2 and it might be ok. If I were to ever make this again I would omit the peppers in the corn and just put 1 or 2 in the pesto.

    There is no recipe for the charred corn salsa on the web.
    please send.

    I think tkhe idea of the corn husk wrapped fish is a awesome idea and can't wait to try it.

    Kevin's salsa also looks fabulous, especially the star fruit.

    I can't wait to try it also.
