For a smoky flavor, grill the corn on the cob before cutting off the kernels. Adjust the amount of jalapeño to suit your desired level of spiciness. Remember that the seeds contain most of the heat, so remove them thoroughly for a milder flavor. If you don't have pimento peppers, a small amount of roasted red bell pepper can be used as a substitute. For a creamier dish, stir in a tablespoon of cream cheese or sour cream after microwaving. This dish can also be prepared on the stovetop. Simply combine all ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat and cook until heated through, stirring occasionally.
