Steps:
- 1. In small bowl whisk lime juice, honey, ground cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Slowly drizzle in olive oil; whisking continuously.
- 2. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the sugar and lemon juice; stir to dissolve. Carefully add the corn to boiling water, cover pot, turn off heat and let the corn sit for 10 minutes. Plunge cooked corn into ice cold water to stop the cooking process. When corn has cooled cut it from the cob.
- 3. Grab a large bowl and add the cooked corn, diced red peppers, grape tomato halves, cilantro, green onions, minced jalapenos, feta and red onion. Drizzle with the lime vinaigrette and toss to coat.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh corn on the cob. If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn, but the flavor will be less sweet.
- To make the corn salad ahead of time, cook the corn and let it cool completely. Then, mix all of the ingredients together and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When you're ready to serve, bring the corn salad to room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- If you want a spicier corn salad, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder.
- For a more colorful corn salad, add some chopped red onion, bell pepper, or tomatoes.
- Serve corn salad as a side dish or as a topping for tacos, burritos, or nachos.
Conclusion:
Corn salad is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. It is also a great way to use up leftover corn on the cob. With its sweet and savory flavor, corn salad is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
