40 minutes. The internal temperature should register 180F. Slice and
serve with the salsa.

Cook the corn in salted water to cover until tender, about 2 to 4
minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water, then scrape the kernels
from the cob. In a medium-size bowl, stir together the corn and
remaining ingredients until well blended. Cover and refrigerate
until ready to serve.
