Wheat Germ Corn Salad Recipes

Steps:

• For the corn: Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• Brush the corn with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill until cooked and browned, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• For the salad: Add the tomatoes, onions, pepper and jalapeno to a bowl. Pour over the olive oil and lime juice, sprinkle with a pinch salt and pepper and toss.
• Cut the corn off the cobs, leaving some in shards, then toss gently with the salad, keeping the shards intact. Sprinkle over the cilantro leaves and gently mix in.

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the corn for 3 minutes until the starchiness is just gone. Drain and immerse it in ice water to stop the cooking and to set the color. When the corn is cool, cut the kernels off the cob, cutting close to the cob.
• Toss the kernels in a large bowl with the red onions, vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Just before serving, toss in the fresh basil. Taste for seasonings and serve cold or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Combine the wheat germ, corn, onions,parsley, carrot and celery.
• Combine the oil, lemon juice, herbs and Mrs Dash or Vegit and combine with wheat germ corn mix.
• Line a salad bowl with crisp salad greens and fill the center with the salad mix.
• Wash a fresh cucumber and slice it very thin. Do not peel the cucumber unless it has been waxed to preserve it. Place the slices decoratively over the corn mix.

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, and stir in the corn and onion. Cook 5 minutes, until heated through. Mix in parsley, and season with salt and pepper. Garnish with chives to serve.

Steps:

• Stir dry ingredients together.
• Make a well, add remaining ingredients, and stir just until moistened.
• Pour into sprayed 9 inch pie plate and bake 25 minutes at 400 degrees; cool on rack 15 minutes, invert bread onto rack, and cut into wedges.
• Edited to say: I have been making this with 1/2 cup of unbleached flour and 1/2 cup of wheat germ (increasing the wheat germ), and it is just as delicious -- so try it the healthier way if you are so inclined!

Steps:

• Stir together flour, wheat germ, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt.
• Combine egg, milk and melted butter; add all at once to flour mixture.
• Stir just until moistened; batter should be lumpy.
• Bake in a 8"x8" pan at 400F for 20 minutes.

Steps:

• To toast the wheat germ, heat up a dry cast iron skillet on low or low-medium heat and toast the wheat germ for about 5 minutes or until lightly browned. Stir constantly and reduce heat if necessary. Wheat germ burns easily and quickly. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• In a large mixing bowl combine both flours, wheat germ, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt.
• In a small glass container, whisk together the egg, butter and milk.
• Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour the egg mixture into the well. Stir *just* until combined; batter will be lumpy.
• Grease muffin tins or line with paper bake cups. Fill 2/3 full. If desired, sprinkle a light dusting of wheat germ on top of each muffin.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Serve immediately.
