Description

A bright, summery and spicy salad perfect for cookouts and picnics.

Ingredients

  • 12 ears Fresh Corn, Shucked And Cut Off The Cob
  • 1 pint Grape Or Cherry Tomatoes, Halved
  • 2 whole Green Onions, Chopped Down To The Root
  • 1 whole Jalapeno, De-seeded And Finely Diced
  • 3 Tablespoons Sour Cream Or Creme Fraiche
  • 2 Tablespoons Red Wine Vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Chipotle Chili Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
  • 2 dashes Salt And Fresh Ground Black Pepper, To Taste

Preparation

Place cut corn into a large mixing bowl with halved tomatoes, green onions and diced jalapeno. In a small mixing bowl, combine sour cream and vinegar. Add chipotle and smoked paprika and whisk together thoroughly. Taste it at this point; adjust the heat or vinegar level and add your salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle it over the veggie mixture and mix thoroughly. Taste one more time and adjust seasonings, if needed. You can serve this immediately or cover and store in the fridge. This salad will last for several days and only get better.

If you are using fresh corn on the cob, DON’T PARBOIL! There is nothing like fresh corn just shucked. This looks really tasty!

So, you don’t cook the corn? I think I would give it a quick parboil after getting it off the cob and then cool it before putting the salad together.

Very good. Used one thawed bag of frozen corn and everything else as the recipe directed.

Fantastic! It’s a great balance of salty and sweet, and could eat the whole bowl myself. I did add a touch of sugar, as I like things a little sweeter. I was glad the commenters warned me of the kick! Thanks so much for sharing this great recipe.

Delicious! When I first made it, it definitely had quite a kick. I let it sit overnight and it mellowed to the perfect amount of spice. The only other change I made was cooking the corn because of who I was serving it to. It’s a flavorful, fresh, summer dish and I’m definitely going to make it again soon!

Delish! I have a little guy so I halved the jalapeno and it still had plenty of bite. I did parboil but only because I’ve never had raw corn and I wasn’t sure if it was supposed to be cooked. I’ll definitely be making this again!
