If the process has a normal distribution, 99.7% of the population is captured by the curve at three standard deviations from the mean. Stated another way, there is only a 1-99.7%, or 0.3% chance of finding a value beyond 3 standard deviations.
Relish is one of them. The most traditional corn relish traces its origins to the South, particularly Louisiana. This sort of relish is often little more than fresh corn kernels, hot peppers, and spices that are boiled briefly in vinegar. The vinegar acts as a preserving agent and also pickles the corn.
Shuck fresh corn. Wrap each ear in wax paper. Microwave for 2 minutes per ear of corn. (For 4 ears, 8 minutes.) Remove from microwave, open carefully, and enjoy. I like to top mine with salt and butter, the magazine suggested a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and lime juice. To keep them warm awhile, leave wrapped and cover with a kitchen towel :-).
