Ingredients
1/4 cup raw whole almonds
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
5 tablespoons olive oil
3 ears corn, shucked, kernels removed
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 jalapeño or Fresno chile, seeded and minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups arugula (about 5 ounces)
8 ounces jarred roasted red peppers, drained and thinly sliced
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Spread the almonds on a baking pan and bake until lightly toasted, about 6 minutes; let cool.
