Quick Recipe
2 cans Drained Corn
2 cups Diced Red Onion
1 cup Diced Jalapeno
1/2 cup Chopped Cilantro
2 tbsp's Salt & Pepper Blend
Two Cans of Corn
Start with two cans of Corn
Open the Cans 90%
Using the Can opener, cut around the lid 90% of the way.
Doing this will keep the lid attached to the can to help eliminate injury. See Lid Safety step for more information.
Drain the Corn Juice
In the Prep Sink, pour the corn into a large colander and allow to drain for 5 minutes
Failure to drain properly will cause too much liquid in the final product.
Lid Safety
Carefully press the lid of the can down into the can. Carefully crush the top of the can to keep the lid from being able to come back out of the can.
You can use the edge of the table to assist in crushing the can.
Doing this will eliminate injury when taking the trash out.
