When warm weather arrives, along with irresistible seasonal produce, it\u2019s only fitting to make these veggies and fruits the star of the show. This fresh corn salad fits the bill of dishes you should have on your summer bucket list. It\u2019s sweet and spicy, adding flavor and color to any plate, and it will pair deliciously with practically any grilled meat or fish.<\/p>\n
You can prepare this refreshing and tasty corn salad in under 20 minutes. While we have our veggie recommendations, feel free to customize the dish with whatever seasonal or available ingredients you have on hand.<\/p>\n
Place the corn in a stockpot and cover it with water. Bring the water to a boil, then cover and cook until the corn is tender, three to five minutes. Drain the water, and set the corn aside to cool.<\/p>\n In a large bowl, combine the oil, vinegar, lemon juice, parsley, sugar, salt (if desired), basil and cayenne pepper. Whisk until the dressing comes together.<\/p>\n Cut the kernels off the cooled corn. You should retain about 4 cups.<\/p>\n Add the corn, tomatoes, onion and peppers to the vinaigrette, mixing everything well. Store your fresh corn salad, covered, in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight, until you\u2019re ready to serve.<\/p>\n This vibrant corn salad can be packed into an airtight container and stored for up to four days in the refrigerator. If it becomes dry after chilling, add a few spoonfuls of olive oil to liven it back up.<\/p>\n You can prepare this salad ahead of time for special gatherings or meal prep. Just follow the recipe, store it in the fridge for up to four days and take it out when you’re ready to serve.<\/p>\n We recommend not freezing this fresh corn salad recipe to maintain its quality. The high moisture content could result in a soggy texture when it’s thawed.<\/p>\n If you plan to meal prep this salad or have lots of leftovers, store it in the fridge for up to four days. However, if you have a vacuum sealer, you can pack it up and keep it for up to five days in the refrigerator.<\/p>\n To save even more time with this salad recipe, try using frozen corn. If you go this route, we recommend thawing the frozen corn in hot water using a strainer or letting it sit in the fridge overnight so it\u2019s still tender when you add it to the dish.<\/p>\n Corn and all the other ingredients in this recipe are naturally gluten-free. Therefore, if you have guests with a gluten intolerance, we can recommend this dish for your next gathering.<\/p>\n This fresh corn salad is a versatile dish that can enhance a variety of meals. It complements grilled meats such as chicken, ribs and pork, as well as seafood like salmon<\/a>, shrimp or cod fish. It can also serve as a delicious salsa, making it an excellent topping for tacos, salads or rice bowls.<\/p>\n You can add many other vegetables to corn salad, based on what you find at the farmers market or what you\u2019ve harvested<\/a> from your own garden. Try adding chopped raw zucchini, summer squash or some spicy hot peppers. If you have a bunch of green beans, blanch them<\/a> to brighten their color and soften them up a bit before stirring them into the salad. Have a lot of fresh herbs<\/a>? Grab a handful and toss them in too!<\/p>\n A lot of people don\u2019t realize you can eat corn raw. In fact, it\u2019s better for you, since you won\u2019t cook off any valuable nutrients and vitamins. You\u2019ll be surprised at the fresh flavor and delicate crunch it has.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" People who prefer food with some tang find this fresh corn salad particularly appealing.

Fresh Corn Salad Tips<\/h2>
What other vegetables can I add to this fresh corn salad?<\/h3>You can add many other vegetables to fresh corn salad based on what you find at the farmers market or what you\u2019ve harvested from your own garden<\/a>. Try adding chopped raw zucchini, summer squash or some spicy hot peppers. If you have a bunch of green beans, blanch them<\/a> to brighten their color and soften them up a little before stirring them into the salad. Got a lot of fresh herbs<\/a>? Go ahead and grab a handful and toss them in! \r\n\r\n
Can the corn be added raw?<\/h3>A lot of people don\u2019t realize you can eat corn raw. In fact, it\u2019s better for you since you won\u2019t cook off any valuable nutrients and vitamins. You\u2019ll be surprised at the fresh flavor and delicate crunch it has. \r\n\r\n
Can I use canned or frozen corn instead of fresh in this corn salad recipe?<\/h3>When fresh corn isn\u2019t available, you can use frozen corn in this salad. Frozen corn is picked at its peak of freshness and minimally processed, so it\u2019s as close to fresh as you can get. Check out our collection of recipes using frozen corn<\/a>, like spoon bread<\/a>, fritter waffles<\/a> and shepherd\u2019s pie<\/a>. \r\n\r\n
How do I store fresh corn salad?<\/h3>You can store fresh corn salad, covered, in your refrigerator for 3-4 days. Keep in mind that the longer it sits, the more the veggies will release water, so we recommend serving it within 1 day of preparing it. If you need to store it for longer, keep the dressing separate from the veggies so they retain their crunch and moisture. \r\n\r\nResearch contributed by James Schend<\/a>, Taste Recipes Deputy Editor, Culinary<\/i>","Metadescription":null,"DigitalHeadnotes":"People who prefer food with some tang find this corn salad particularly appealing.

Fresh Corn Salad Tips<\/h2>
What other vegetables can I add to this fresh corn salad?<\/h3>You can add many other vegetables to fresh corn salad based on what you find at the farmers market or what you\u2019ve harvested from your own garden<\/a>. Try adding chopped raw zucchini, summer squash or some spicy hot peppers. If you have a bunch of green beans, blanch them<\/a> to brighten their color and soften them up a little before stirring them into the salad. Got a lot of fresh herbs<\/a>? Go ahead and grab a handful and toss them in!
Can the corn be added raw?<\/h3>A lot of people don\u2019t realize you can eat corn raw. In fact, it\u2019s better for you since you won\u2019t cook off any valuable nutrients and vitamins. You\u2019ll be surprised at the fresh flavor and delicate crunch it has.
Can I use canned or frozen corn instead of fresh in this corn salad recipe?<\/h3>When fresh corn isn\u2019t available, you can use frozen corn in this salad. Frozen corn is picked at its peak of freshness and minimally processed, so it\u2019s as close to fresh as you can get. Check out our collection of recipes using frozen corn<\/a>, like spoon bread<\/a>, fritter waffles<\/a> and shepherd\u2019s pie<\/a>.
How do I store fresh corn salad?<\/h3>You can store fresh corn salad, covered, in your refrigerator for 3-4 days. Keep in mind that the longer it sits, the more the veggies will release water, so we recommend serving it within 1 day of preparing it. If you need to store it for longer, keep the dressing separate from the veggies so they retain their crunch and moisture.
