Рецепт Grilled Corn Salad
There is nothing like fresh New Jersey Corn! Sometimes you don't even need the butter when you get a good batch!
There are lots of ways to cook fresh corn. You can grill it, steam it, saute it or just plain old boiling it. To boil fresh corn, remove outer leaves and silk (fun for the kids to do). Put into a big pot of cold water; when the water comes to a boil - it's done! All you need is some butter, salt and pepper and you have the best summer side dish.
- Here's a recipe for grilled corn:
- 5 large ears corn, husked
- 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
- 1 small orange or red bell pepper
- 1 medium onion, slice in 1" thick slices
- 2 Tbsp. fresh basil, shredded
- 2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Prepare corn, onions and bell pepper by brushing lightly with olive oil and salt and pepper. To make grilling onions easier, thread onto bamboo skewers.
Grill corn, pepper and onions turning to cook all sides until some of the kernels are slightly charred, about 8-10 minutes. Let stand until cool enough to handle.
Remove kernels from the cobs. Remove onion from skewers and chop roughly. Combine corn, tomatoes, pepper and onions in a medium bowl. Stir in basil, oil and vinegar and salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper (to taste, but I found this salad to be on the sweet side and I like lots of pepper!)
