Steps:
- Microwave the corn on a microwave-safe plate on high for 7 minutes. Remove from the microwave, and grip the corn with a dish towel. Then cut off the bottom end with a serrated knife. Slide the corn out of the husk. It should come out fairly easily with none of the silky string mess.
- Brush the corn with olive oil, then place on a cast iron grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Grill for 5-6 minutes on each side, until the kernels are slightly charred.
- Insert the narrow end of an ear of corn into the center hole of a bundt pan. Holding the corn steady with one hand, saw off the kernels with a serrated knife. The kernels will fall into the pan for easy collection.
- Make the cilantro-lime vinaigrette: Combine the cilantro, olive oil, lime juice, garlic, chili powder, honey, salt, and pepper in a food processor and blend until smooth.
- In a large bowl, add the pasta, corn, tomatoes, red onion, avocado, and vinaigrette, and mix until well-combined.
- Enjoy!

Steps:

- 2. Combine the corn liquid with the cream cheese in a saucepan. Heat and blend until smooth.
- 3. Stir in remaining ingredients.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, sweet corn for the best flavor. Look for ears with plump, tightly packed kernels and no blemishes.
- If you're using fresh corn, blanch it before adding it to the salad. This will help to preserve the corn's鮮豔色彩 and crisp texture.
- Use a variety of vegetables in your salad for a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, onions, and beans.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different dressings. A vinaigrette is a classic choice, but you could also try a creamy dressing made with mayonnaise or yogurt.
- Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later. Corn salad is best enjoyed fresh, but it will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
