Do the same with the jalape\u00f1o.  You can leave the seeds in if you prefer really spicy food.  The heat in peppers is in the seeds.  Dice the peppers in 1/8" dice so they are nice and small.

Roasting the corn is optional.  If you have the time and a grill, it's even better if you grill it first, then remove the corn from the husk.  Whatever you do, add 1 cup to the mixing bowl.
