Steps:

• Make the dressing: Combine the mint, cilantro, vinegar, 1 teaspoon of the honey, and salt and pepper to taste in a blender. Blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the olive oil and blend until emulsified. Taste and add more honey, salt and pepper as desired. Set aside.
• Heat a grill to medium high.
• Brush the corn with some canola oil, then season with salt and pepper. Grill, covered, until lightly charred on all sides and tender, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Let cool slightly, then cut the corn kernels from the cobs and place them in a large bowl.
• Add the scallions to the bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add some of the dressing and toss to coat. Transfer to a platter; top with the cheese, mint and another drizzle of the dressing. Serve immediately.

CARAMELIZED CORN WITH FRESH MINT

Steps:

• If using frozen corn, drain between layers of paper towels until thawed, about 30 minutes.
• In a wide skillet, melt half the butter over high heat. Add half the corn and cook, stirring often, until golden and browned (kernels may begin to pop), about 10 minutes. Stir in half the mint and sprinkle with salt. Transfer to a serving bowl. Repeat with remaining corn, butter, mint and salt.

CILANTRO TOMATO CORN SALAD

Steps:

• Peel back corn husks, but leave them attached at the bottom. Remove the silks, and fold husks back up over the corn. Place on a dinner plate, and cook in the microwave for 5 minutes on High power, turning corn once half way through. Cool until cool enough to touch, then slice corn kernels from the cob and place them in a serving bowl.
• Stir butter into the corn along with the tomatoes, jalapeno, red onion, garlic and cilantro. Season with salt, pepper, and seasoning blend. Mix well, taste, and adjust seasoning if necessary. Some people like the salad warm, but I prefer to chill it a little before serving.

CORN AND SCALLION SALAD WITH CILANTRO-MINT DRESSING

Cool slightly and remove the kernels from the cobs. Combine the corn, greens and green onions in a bowl, then season with salt and pepper. Add some of the dressing and toss to coat. Top with the cheese and another drizzle of dressing. Serve immediately.

CONFETTI CORN SALAD (INA GARTEN BACK TO BASICS)

• Brush remaining 3 ears of corn with oil and grill, turning occasionally, until very tender and charred and blackened in spots, 10-12 minutes. (Alternatively, remove kernels from cobs and cook in a dry large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until charred in spots, about 4 minutes.) Let cool.
