Best Corn Salad With Tomatoes Feta And Mint Recipes
CORN SALAD WITH TOMATOES, FETA AND MINT
Fresh raw corn shucked from the cob is ideal here. The juice from the tomatoes delivers just the right amount of acidity, so there's no need for vinegar. Eat this as is, by the bowl, or toss it with cooked rice or beans for a more filling meal - you'll want to add oil and vinegar accordingly. In midsummer, with peak-season produce, there is nothing better.

PAN-ROASTED CORN AND TOMATO SALAD
You can take a corn and tomato salad in a number of directions, but at the end of the day it shouldn't be much more than a dish you can make perfectly only in mid- to late summer, and one that showcases its primary ingredients. My version here marries corn and tomatoes with chile, avocado, cilantro and lime. It is just plain good. At the end, you've got meaty smokiness from bacon; that incredible sweetness of corn; the fruity acidity of tomato; the tender, smooth fattiness of avocado, and the sharpness of chile. It's a summer winner, one that you shouldn't even try after the first frost.

Steps:
- Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to render fat; add onion and cook until just softened, about 5 minutes, then add corn. Continue cooking, stirring or shaking pan occasionally, until corn begins to brown a bit, about 5 more minutes; remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes. Drain fat if you wish.
- Put lime juice in a large bowl and add bacon-corn mixture; then toss with remaining ingredients. Taste, adjust the seasoning and serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Whisk oil, vinegar, garlic, sugar, salt, and pepper for vinaigrette together in a small bowl; set aside.
- Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add corn, cover, and steam until just slightly tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
- While the corn is steaming, core each tomato and cut crosswise into 4 thick slices.
- Carefully remove corn from the pot and remove kernels by running a knife down the sides of the ears.
- Place one tomato slice on each of 4 plates. Drizzle with vinaigrette (using up about 1/3). Top with a little feta cheese and onion, then sprinkle with corn kernels, basil, and chives. Continue layering the ingredients, ending with a tomato slice, herbs, and cheese to garnish.
- Let marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving.
