It’s summer here in New Jersey and the farm stands are overflowing with fresh Jersey corn! I’m using it, along with peppers, tomatoes, scallions and cucumbers to make my Fresh Summer Corn Salad. Sweet fresh corn right off the cob is the star of this healthy salad and combined with a light and easy vinaigrette, you will be having this for more than just picnics.

=== 🍽🍸πŸ₯© RECIPE ===
4 ears fresh corn on the cob, blanched and taken off the cob
2 bell peppers – various colors, diced small
1 bunch scallions (4-5), green part only, sliced
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 English cucumber, medium dice
1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes cut in half
1 cup (235 ml) Vinaigrette

To blanch the corn:
Bring a pot of salted water to a full boil. Add the corn for one minute. Remove, and place in an ice bath to stop the cooking.

To take the corn off the cob:
Using a sharp knife, run the blade of the knife down the cob, removing the kernels. If you have a Bundt pan, put the tip of the cob in the center hole of the Bundt pan and remove the kernels. The corn will fall into the Bundt pan.

Combine all ingredients into a large bowl and mix well. 30 minutes before serving, dress with your favorite vinaigrette (even if it’s store bought!). My favorite is the garlic and herb vinaigrette packets you make up with your own oil and vinegar.

  1. Most people think of New Jersey as the suburbs of New York or Philadelphia, but it is called the Garden State for a reason. Head into Central and Southern New Jersey and you will find miles of open farmland. NJ is known for its tomatoes, silver queen corn, cranberries and blueberries. This corn salad is easy and a blank canvas for you to add your own flavors. What would you add to this Fresh Summer Corn Salad recipe?

  2. Looks really refreshing, and perfect for this time of year when you find corn at every farm stand.

  3. this is a great idea for backyard patio dinner salad ! Thanks for the video and meal idea

  4. Also… I have to mention…
    My family used to freeze corn every summer so we could eat it all year around; we did this via an assembly line in the kitchen. We usually did 200 ears of corn. Because of this, I am very familiar with blanching the corn but your Bundt-cake-pan-trick for cutting the corn off the cob blows my mind! 🀯 I really wish we had known about that back in those days. That's awesome. Thank you. 😘

  5. OMG this looks AMAZING! It just screams summer. Will definitely have to take a crack at this! Cheers!

  6. Look delicious and healthy, thanks for sharing my friend, please stay connected πŸ€πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸŽ
