Corn Relish Recipe

A Delicious side dish recipe to compliment any main dish but is wonderful paired with the BLACK BEAN CAKE RECIPE

Here is an easy to make Corn Relish Recipe that can be made ahead of time and stays fresh in refrigerator for several weeks.

As you probably know, most of the recipes I share are “so easy even I’ll make it”! As a result, they are also recipes that have easy to obtain ingredients and are staples in the pantry.

Tools needed to prepare this recipe


Since the corn relish recipe is another easy to pull from the pantry side dishes, it also doesn’t require a lot of tools to make.

You only need a few measuring spoons and measuring cups, along with a mixing bowl and a small sauce pan. I like to use a decorative mixing bowl with a lid for storage in the refrigerator for the left overs. These are so pretty, you can use them to serve the side dish as well.
