Fresh Corn Salad
RECIPE COURTESY OF INA GARTEN
Level: Easy
Total: 13 min
Prep: 10 min
Cook: 3 min
Yield: 4 to 6 servings

Ingredients

5 ears of corn, shucked
1/2 cup small-diced red onion (1 small onion)
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
3 tablespoons good olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup julienned fresh basil leaves

Directions

In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the corn for 3 minutes until the starchiness is just gone. Drain and immerse it in ice water to stop the cooking and to set the color. When the corn is cool, cut the kernels off the cob, cutting close to the cob.

Toss the kernels in a large bowl with the red onions, vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Just before serving, toss in the fresh basil. Taste for seasonings and serve cold or at room temperature.

  1. My favorite part of summer is shopping my local farmer's market and every year I can't wait for that fresh corn to come in. They have bi-color and they have white (Silver Queen). Both are delicious. I will definitely try this corn salad this summer.

  2. Prefer this to scalloped corn, which I find fulsomely rich. Given the sugar and oil in corn, I might go easy on the olive oil, and use a lotta vinegar. Fresh corn best, but you can eat this anytime. TJ's frozen corn has utility.

  3. Thank you! I've been looking for a simple corn salad recipe that didn't lose the corn flavor with too many ingredients and spices.

  4. For as many cooks there are, there's probably 1/2 that many recipes for this, or any other actually.
    Now, while the tomatoes on the counter wouldn't be the ideal type for this salad, tomatoes add a lot!
    A few o/ingredients as well, but hey…it's all good.

  5. I was waiting for her to say "i know you're thinking cilantro goes in this but i think cilantro tastes like soap"

  6. I have been making g this fir tears but I also add fresh asparagus cut on diagonal on small bites. Thanks Ina and have watched you from beginning ND have many if your cook books. Stay blessed.

  7. Of course….I love all of her specific methods…..for her recipes!! Neighbor gave us 40 ears…..so we have shucked and cut corn off to cook, make salad or freeze remainder. I throw the empty corn cobs into the woods nearby…..for the raccoons, possums and bugs to nibble on. I cannot compost this far south because the yellow jacket bees…..take over. So I give the raw uncooked foods……back to the land…..far away from our back yard. Am grateful to share back to…..Mother Earth!!!

  8. We used to serve a similar corn salad when I did catering in the Hamptons. It was probably based off this recipe, if not the same. You can add halved cherry tomatoes to bulk it up or add color if you have them. I prefer to use red or white wine vinegar, personally, as I feel it is a bit more mild than cider. If using cider I would probably add a pinch of sugar to mellow its acidity.
