GRILLED CORN SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat; lightly oil the grate.
• Cook the corn on the preheated grill, turning occasionally, until the corn is tender and specks of black appear, about 10 minutes; set aside until just cool enough to handle. Slice the kernels off of the cob and place into a bowl.
• Combine the warm corn kernels with the green pepper, diced tomato, onion, cilantro, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper; toss until evenly mixed. Set aside for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend before serving.

FRESH SUMMER CORN SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add corn and cook until the starchiness is just gone, about 3 minutes. Drain and immerse immediately in ice water to stop the cooking process and to set the color. Allow to cool, about 10 minutes.
• Remove kernels, cutting close to the cobs.
• Toss corn kernels with red onion, vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Toss in fresh basil just before serving. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve at room temperature, or cold.
