Tips:

  • Choose the right corn: Use fresh, sweet corn on the cob. Avoid corn that is dried out or has brown kernels.
  • Smoke the corn properly: Smoke the corn over indirect heat for about 30 minutes, or until it is tender and slightly charred.
  • Make the vinaigrette ahead of time: The vinaigrette can be made up to 2 days ahead of time. This makes it a great option for a quick and easy meal.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro and parsley, add a bright, flavorful touch to the smoked corn vinaigrette.
  • Serve the smoked corn vinaigrette immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is made. The smoked corn will lose its flavor if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Smoked corn vinaigrette is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The smoky flavor of the corn pairs perfectly with the tangy vinaigrette, and the fresh herbs add a bright, flavorful touch. This dish is sure to be a hit at your next barbecue or potluck.
