 surface of tomatoes and squash with olive oil, and grill just to mark.


 


 2. Finely chop tomatoes and squash, and transfer to a bowl. Remove husk


 from corn, cut kernels from cob, and add to bowl, along with garlic,


 jicama, onion, chile, vinegar, liquid smoke, and herbs. Stir to combine,


 cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
