Categories     Entree

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 - 3 oz. baby arugula
4 ears of corn, shucked (about 3 cups) *see notes
1 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 red onion, diced
1 lemon, juice of
1 - 2 tablespoons olive oil, optional
1/2 teaspoon salt + pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • Prep corn: Remove the husks and stringy fibers from the corn cut/slice the corn off the cob. See this, 3 Mess Free Ways to get Corn of the Cobb, for a quick tutorial. Prep the bell pepper and onion.
  • Assemble: In a large mixing bowl, place the arugula, corn, bell pepper and onion. Add the lemon juice, olive oil and salt & pepper. Mix well to combine. Taste for seasoning adding more lemon juice or salt & pepper as needed.
  • Serve: Enjoy right away, or let the salad set for about 10 minutes (you can also chill it if you like). The arugula will soften and slightly wilt during that time making the salad look more proportioned and not so arugula heavy (it makes it a little easier to eat).
  • Store: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or so.

ARUGULA, CORN AND HERB SALAD



Arugula, Corn and Herb Salad image

Corn, lightly steamed and cut off the cob, is terrific in salads. It goes very nicely with arugula, the sweet corn providing a beautiful contrast to the pungent salad green. Although we don't think of corn as a nutritional powerhouse, it's a good source of several nutrients, including thiamin (vitamin B1), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), folate, dietary fiber, vitamin C, phosphorus and manganese. A cup of corn supplies 19 percent of the recommended daily dose of folate, and about a quarter of the daily value for thiamin.

CORN SALAD WITH ARUGULA



Corn Salad with Arugula image

This is a wonderful way to use canned corn in a crowd-pleasing yet sophisticated salad. Be sure to use the soft goat cheese that comes in a log or pyramid. That way, you can slice it and your guests can choose as much as they want. Another tip is to mix the corn, onion, and dressing beforehand in a plastic container and give it a quick shake before assembling your salad. This makes it perfect for potlucks!

ARUGULA CORN SALAD WITH BACON RECIPE



Arugula Corn Salad With Bacon Recipe image

Make and share this Arugula Corn Salad With Bacon Recipe recipe from Food.com.

Provided by dicentra

Categories     Corn

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large ears of corn
2 cups of chopped arugula (about one bunch)
4 slices cooked bacon, chopped
1/3 cup chopped green onion
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Cook the corn ears, in their husks, either on the grill for a smokey flavor, or by steaming in a large covered stock pot with an inch of boiling water at the bottom of the pot, for 12-15 minutes.
  • Let the corn cool (can run under cold water to speed up the cooling), remove the husks and silk. I recommend cooking the corn in the husks for the added flavor that the husks impart.
  • If you boil or steam the corn ears after you've already husked them, or if you cook them in the microwave, reduce the cooking time by a few minutes.To remove the kernels from the cobs, stand a corn cob vertically over a large, shallow bowl.
  • Use a sharp knife to make long, downward strokes, removing the kernels from the cob, as you work your way around the cob. Note: it may help to work over a low table, to be in a better ergonomic position to cut the cobs this way.
  • In a medium sized bowl, mix together the corn, chopped arugula, bacon, and onions. In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, salt and pepper, and cumin.
  • Mix dressing into salad just before serving. Taste and add more vinegar if necessary to balance the sweetness of the corn.

Tips:

  • Fresh ingredients: Use the freshest possible arugula, corn, and herbs for the best flavor and texture.
  • Choose sweet corn: Look for corn that is plump and has bright yellow kernels.
  • Use a variety of herbs: To add depth of flavor, use a mix of herbs such as basil, chives, mint, and parsley.
  • Don't overdress the salad: A light vinaigrette dressing is all you need to enhance the flavors of the salad without overpowering them.
  • Serve immediately: Arugula salad is best enjoyed fresh, so serve it immediately after making it.

This Arugula, Corn, and Herb Salad is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for summer gatherings.
