GARDENER'S SWEET CORN AND CHERRY TOMATO SALAD



Gardener's Sweet Corn and Cherry Tomato Salad image

This salad is a celebration of the summer garden- fresh ripe corn, sweet juicy cherry tomatoes still warm from the summer sun, and basil picked from the herb garden. I like Yellow Pear and Sweet Million tomatoes, but use whatever grows well in your garden. This is a very simple recipe that is all about using the best that the summer garden can offer. Second rate ingredients will not produce the same result. If you're reading this in the winter, save it until you can use fresh, local produce! You'll be glad you did.

Categories     Low Protein

Time 5m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
kosher salt
black pepper, freshly ground
3 cups corn kernels (from about 6 cooked ears of corn)
20 cherry tomatoes (red or yellow or combined)
2 tablespoons fresh basil leaves, thinly siced
1 tablespoon flat-leaf Italian parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the oil and vinegar with salt and pepper to taste to form a dressing.
  • Add the remaining ingredients, and toss to coat with the dressing.
  • Taste, and reseason if necessary.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and flavorful tomatoes. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and have no blemishes. Avoid tomatoes that are green or have soft spots.
  • Use fresh corn kernels. Fresh corn kernels are sweeter and more flavorful than frozen or canned corn. If you don't have fresh corn kernels, you can use frozen or canned corn, but be sure to drain them well before using.
  • Don't overcook the corn. Corn kernels should be cooked just until they are tender, but still have a slight crunch. Overcooked corn will be tough and chewy.
  • Use a light vinaigrette dressing. A light vinaigrette dressing will help to enhance the flavors of the tomatoes and corn without overpowering them. Avoid using heavy or creamy dressings.
  • Add some herbs or spices. Herbs and spices can help to add flavor and depth to the salad. Some good options include basil, cilantro, mint, thyme, oregano, paprika, and cumin.
  • Serve the salad immediately. This salad is best served immediately after it is made, while the corn is still warm and the tomatoes are still juicy.

Conclusion:

Cherry tomato corn salad is a delicious and refreshing summer salad that is perfect for potlucks, picnics, and barbecues. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its bright flavors and colorful appearance, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
