Number Of Ingredients 11

4 ears fresh corn, shucked
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons sherry-wine vinegar
1 pinch sugar
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 large yellow tomato, cored and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 large red tomato, cored and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/4 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves, coarsely chopped
1 avocado, cut into 1/4-inch dice
8 cups (3 bunches) arugula, stems removed
2 ounces ricotta salata cheese

Steps:

  • Prepare an ice bath; set aside. Cover, and bring a large pot of cold water to a boil over high heat. Add corn, and let simmer, uncovered, until just tender, about 2 minutes. Drain the corn, and transfer to the ice-water bath. When cool, remove from the ice bath. Using a large knife, remove kernels; set aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper; set aside. In a large bowl, combine corn, tomatoes, and basil. Drizzle with half of the dressing, and toss to coat. Gently fold in the diced avocado.
  • Place arugula in a medium bowl. Drizzle with remaining dressing, and toss to coat. Transfer to a large platter. Arrange vegetable mixture over arugula. Shave ricotta salata over salad. Serve immediately.

I used cherry tomatoes instead of regular tomatoes and it worked great. The salad was still just as delicious.
