Creamy Cucumber Tomato And Corn Salad V Gf Df Food

GARDEN-FRESH CORN SALAD

Steps:

• In a large serving bowl, combine the corn, tomato, green onion, cucumber, herbs (don't skimp on the herbs!), radishes, and jalapeño.
• In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, combine the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, salt and several twists of black pepper. Whisk until blended, then pour it over the salad. Toss to combine.
• Add most of the feta or avocado (reserve some for garnish), and gently toss. Taste, and add more vinegar for more tang (I usually add another full tablespoon), or salt for more overall flavor. Garnish with the remaining feta or avocado.
• Serve promptly, or chill for later. This salad keeps well for 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator, covered.

FRESH CORN AND TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• Whisk together the vinegar, 2 teaspoons salt and some pepper in a small bowl. Gradually whisk in the oil, starting with a few drops and then adding the rest in a steady stream, to make a smooth dressing.
• Shear off the corn kernels with a sharp knife over a bowl (you should have about 4 cups). Toss in the tomatoes, mozzarella and scallions. Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and toss to coat. Cover and let stand for at least 15 minutes and up to 2 hours. Before serving, tear the basil over the salad and stir.

CREAMY CORN AND TOMATO PASTA SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, chives, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl.
• Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions. About 3 minutes before the pasta is done, add the corn to the pot. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool; add to the bowl with the dressing.
• Add the tomatoes and scallions to the bowl and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. The pasta salad is best if served right away.

SHOE PEG CORN SALAD

Steps:

• Mix together the sour cream, mayonnaise, vinegar, dry mustard, celery salt, and salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
• Drain the corn into the bowl with the dressing, then mix in chopped cucumber, minced onion, and diced tomato. Toss well and refrigerate. If you have the time, let it sit in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight.
• Top with chopped green onion before serving, if desired. Serve as a side dish or a dip.

ROASTED CORN AND CUCUMBER TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium heat. To roast the corn, rub the shucked ears of corn with 1/2 teaspoon olive oil, reserving the remaining oil to dress the salad. Place the corn on the grill and cook, turning often, until the corn is slightly charred and still crisp, 8 to 10 minute. Remove from the heat and cool briefly.
• Cut the kernels off the cob and place in a large bowl. (Two cobs of corn should yield 1 1/2 to 2 cups of kernels.) Add the cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, red wine vinegar, smoked paprika and salt and pepper, to taste. Toss to combine.
