    Fresh Corn Salad


    Source of Recipe


    Barefoot Contessa

    Recipe Introduction


    Difficulty: Easy
    Prep Time: 10 minutes
    Cook Time: 3 minutes
    Yield: 4 to 6 servings

    List of 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




    Recipe



    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.
