Directions

3 tablespoons white wine vinegar

2 teaspoons kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

6 ears fresh corn, husked (about 4 cups corn kernels)

2 cups red or orange grape tomatoes, halved

1 bunch scallions (white and green), thinly sliced

8 ounces fresh mozzarella, cut into small cubes

1 1/2 cups fresh basil leaves

Whisk the vinegar, salt, and 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. Toss in the tomatoes, scallions, and mozzarella. Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and toss to coat. Cover and let set for 15 minutes or up to 2 hours. Before serving tear the basil over the salad and stir.

Great side dish for any get together!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I enjoyed this dish very much, as well as many of my guests! The only thing I did different was added some crushed garlic. ... Definitely gave it a nice flavor and complimented the other ingredients. As I read earlier, I too brought it to a BBQ and it definitely was a crowd pleaser. Instead of fresh corn, I used frozen corn but to me it seemed almost the same. Definitely a keeper!Read more

AWESOME!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

If your a corn fan like me you have to make this! Its simple to make and a crowd pleaser! I brought this to a barbeque and... got tons of compliments and requests for the recipe. The recipe calls for corn of the cob which can be time consuming to cut it off the cob.A shorter version which i've used several times and is just as good is buy the Birds Eye Steam fresh corn in the freezer section it tastes really good better than other brandsl.Two bags are perfect the perfect amount.Enoy!Read more

fabulous, but...
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I loved this recipe, but I made a number of changes. I cooked the corn, didn't add the cheese, and used a mixture of... beefsteak and cherry tomatoes. It is delicious and a definite do over.Read more

So fresh and good. I love the raw crunchy corn. I forgot to buy the green onions but I will remember next time.
