Corn And Scallion Salad With Cilantro Mint Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Make the dressing: Combine the mint, cilantro, vinegar, 1 teaspoon of the honey, and salt and pepper to taste in a blender. Blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the olive oil and blend until emulsified. Taste and add more honey, salt and pepper as desired. Set aside.
• Heat a grill to medium high.
• Brush the corn with some canola oil, then season with salt and pepper. Grill, covered, until lightly charred on all sides and tender, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Let cool slightly, then cut the corn kernels from the cobs and place them in a large bowl.
• Add the scallions to the bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add some of the dressing and toss to coat. Transfer to a platter; top with the cheese, mint and another drizzle of the dressing. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat grill to high. Rub corn and scallions with oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill corn, turning, until charred and lightly cooked, about 6 minutes. Let cool, then cut kernels off cobs (5 cups). Grill scallions until charred, about 2 minutes. Cut into 1-inch pieces. Toss corn, scallions, and mint together. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine corn, scallions, vinegar, oil, and tarragon. Season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine.

Steps:

• Quarter the white parts of 4 scallions lengthwise; thinly slice the green parts. Soak the scallion whites in cold water, 15 minutes; drain. Whisk 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 minced garlic clove, 1 teaspoon each sesame oil, chili oil and kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon sugar. Toss with the scallions (white and green parts), 2 bunches cilantro (leaves and tender stems), 1 thinly sliced serrano chile and 1 english cucumber (cut into thin strips).

Steps:

• Just before serving, pour dressing over corn mixture and toss.

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.
