Canned beans can also be used in this composed salad with a base of sweet corn and pungent arugula. Since you don't need a broth for this composed salad, canned beans will work, though I always prefer the flavor of beans I've cooked myself. I like to use a white bean, either a cannellini or a navy bean. I've always loved sweet corn with pungent arugula. I combine the two for a salad bed, which I top with the roasted peppers and beans. So the dish is really two salads, one on top of the other.

Steps:
- Steam corn for 4 to 5 minutes, until just tender. Remove from heat, allow to cool, and cut kernels off cob. Combine with arugula in a large bowl.
- Remove seeds and membranes from roasted peppers and cut in 2-inch strips. Place in another bowl. Add beans, chives and basil and toss together.
- Whisk together vinegars, salt, garlic, mustard, and olive oil. Set aside 3 tablespoons of the dressing and toss the rest with beans and peppers. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and allow to sit for at least 15 minutes and for up to 3 days (in the refrigerator).
- Toss remaining dressing with arugula and corn. Line salad plates or a platter with arugula and corn mixture. Top with peppers and beans. Garnish with shaved Parmesan, and serve.
