Steps:
- Soak the corn in its husks in a bowl of heavily salted water overnight in the refrigerator. Keep the ears submerged below the surface of the water with a plate weighted down with a heavy can.
- Prepare and preheat your lump charcoal grill to medium low.
- Put the corn, still in its husks, on the grill, cover, and cook, turning occasionally, for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the garlic, jalapeño and a large pinch of salt. Add the lime zest, lime juice and olive oil and whisk to combine. Add the avocado, tomatoes, scallions and cilantro and toss gently to combine.
- Remove the corn from the grill. When cool enough to handle, peel back the husks, discard the silk and slice the kernels off the cobs with a knife. Add to the bowl of vegetables. Toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.

GRILLED SCALLOPS AND NECTARINES WITH CORN AND TOMATO SALAD
Steps:
- MAKE DRESSING
- Whisk the lime juice, lime peel, and piment d'Espelette in a small bowl. Gradually whisk in the oil. Season with fleur de sel and pepper.
- MAKE BASIL PURÉE
- Blanch the basil in a small pot of boiling salted water 30 seconds; drain. Squeeze to remove as much water as possible, then coarsely chop. Purée the basil and oil in a blender until smooth. Transfer to a small bowl. Season to taste with fleur de sel.
- MAKE SALAD
- Prepare a grill to medium-high heat. Brush the scallops and nectarines with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the scallops until slightly charred and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Grill the nectarines until slightly charred, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer the scallops and nectarines to a plate.
- Arrange 4 scallops on each of 6 plates. Toss the corn and 2 tablespoons dressing in a medium bowl. Toss the tomatoes with 1 tablespoon dressing in another bowl; season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Spoon corn around scallops. Scatter tomatoes over corn. Arrange nectarine wedges decoratively on plates. Drizzle some dressing over scallops, then spoon some basil purée over. Sprinkle the sliced basil and fleur de sel over the corn and tomatoes and serve.
- DO AHEAD
- The DRESSING and BASIL PURÉE can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill separately. Bring both to room temperature before using.
GRILLED SCALLOPS WITH PEACHES, CORN AND TOMATOES
The easiest hot-weather supper, this salad benefits from peak-summer ingredients, which need very little prep. You can throw the corn cobs and halved peaches directly on the grill, but if your scallops are small enough to fall through the grates, you should skewer them onto metal skewers or wooden skewers that have been soaked in water. The only thing worse than losing a sweet, meaty scallop into the fire would be overcooking it, so be sure to remove the scallops from the grill before they're fully opaque.

Steps:
- Heat a charcoal or gas grill until very hot. Brush the grill grate with a little oil and put it 3 or 4 inches from the heat.
- Brush the corn and peaches with the oil, season with salt and pepper and grill until lightly browned all over. Strip the corn kernels off the cobs and chop the peaches; transfer to a large bowl.
- Brush the scallops with oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and grill until they're brown and release easily from the grill, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Take the scallops off the grill before the interior becomes totally opaque.
- Halve the scallops and add them to the bowl along with the tomatoes and herbs. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.

Tomatoes taste best at room temperature, so prep this salad and stow it for a bit while you cook the main dish on the grill.

Steps:
- Heat grill to high; lightly oil grates. Place corn on grill. Cover, and cook, turning occasionally, until tender and slightly charred, 8 to 10 minutes.
