Number Of Ingredients 15
Steps:
- Place the chayotes in a large saucepan with water to cover generously. Add the salt, bring to boil over high heat, reduce the heat to medium, and cook until tender but still firm, about 30 minutes. Drain the chayotes and corn. When cool enough to handle, peel the chayotes and cut into 1/2 inch dice. Cook the corn quickly and drain. Place the chayotes, corn, and tomatoes in a bowl and set aside. Place the onion slices in a heatproof bowl and add boiling water to cover. Let soak long enough for the slices to lose some of their crispness but not become limp, 2-3 minutes. Drain the onions well, cover, and refrigerate until cold. To make the dressing, whisk together the canola and olive oils. Whisk in the vinegar and lime juice and then add the oregano, sugar, red pepper flakes, Tabasco, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings. Pour 1/2 cup of the dressing over the vegetables. Scatter the onion rings on top and serve.
FRESH CORN AND TOMATO SALAD
Steps:
- Whisk together the vinegar, 2 teaspoons salt and some 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 (you should have about 4 cups). Toss in the tomatoes, mozzarella and scallions. Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and toss to coat. Cover and let stand for at least 15 minutes and up to 2 hours. Before serving, tear the basil over the salad and stir.

CORN SALAD WITH TOMATOES, BASIL AND CILANTRO
High summer produce comes together in this simple mix, tangy with lime juice and full of fresh herbs. Even in the height of the season, corn gets a touch sweeter when heated, and the easiest way to do it is in the microwave. It takes just a few minutes to zap the corn cobs in their husks, which makes them easy to shuck. The silks will slip right off the sweeter and still-crisp corn. Picking basil and cilantro leaves by hand then tearing them right over the salad keeps their delicate fragrance intact. Serve this with anything off the grill or alongside tacos or sandwiches.

Steps:
- Microwave the corn in their husks on high for 3 minutes. Shuck the corn - the silks will come off easily. (If you want to boil or steam the corn on the stovetop, you can shuck the corn first then cook just until brighter in color, 2 to 3 minutes.) Cut the kernels off the cobs, transfer them to a large bowl and add the tomatoes.
- Finely grate the zest of the lime directly over the corn mixture, then squeeze the juice from the lime all over. Add the oil, a generous pinch of salt and the chile, if using. Mix well, then tear the herbs over the salad and gently fold them in. Season to taste with salt and serve, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 day.

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.

GRILLED CORN SALAD WITH CHAYOTE SQUASH

Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Oil corn, chayote squash, zucchini, and chile peppers; place on a rack for 5 minutes to allow excess oil to drip off.
- Transfer vegetables to the preheated grill and cook until they have a nice brown crust, 10 to 15 minutes. The corn should have some kernels that are close to burning, and the peppers will be expanding and making popping noises. Remove from the grill and allow to cool, about 30 minutes.
- Remove and discard the plastic-like skin from the peppers by scraping the blade of a knife along the outsides. Mince peppers, dice zucchini and chayote, and cut corn kernels off the cobs. Transfer all to a bowl and add onion, cilantro, lime zest and juice, and salt to taste. Add more olive oil if the mixture is dry or if you want the flavor to be more pronounced.

- Place chayotes in a saucepan and cover with water. Cook over medium-high heat until they are soft and a knife can be inserted easily. This process will take about 15 to 20 minutes depending on the size of the chayotes and how tender they are. Usually, larger chayotes take longer to cook.
- While the chayotes are cooking, mix the olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Before adding the oregano to the dressing, crush the oregano with the tips of your fingers. Add the oregano to the dressing along with the onion and mix. Taste and add more salt if needed, based on your personal taste.
- Once the chayotes are cooked, gently remove from the saucepan using cooking tongs and drain. Now, with the help of a vegetable peeler, remove the peel. Cut the chayote into cubes or slices.
- Place the chayotes on a serving plate and drizzle with the dressing. You can serve this salad either cold or warm. As I mentioned above, you can also add some Queso Fresco cubes to the salad. Enjoy!
