Steps:
- Peel back corn husks, but leave them attached at the bottom. Remove the silks, and fold husks back up over the corn. Place on a dinner plate, and cook in the microwave for 5 minutes on High power, turning corn once half way through. Cool until cool enough to touch, then slice corn kernels from the cob and place them in a serving bowl.
- Stir butter into the corn along with the tomatoes, jalapeno, red onion, garlic and cilantro. Season with salt, pepper, and seasoning blend. Mix well, taste, and adjust seasoning if necessary. Some people like the salad warm, but I prefer to chill it a little before serving.

CORN SALAD WITH TOMATOES, BASIL AND CILANTRO
High summer produce comes together in this simple mix, tangy with lime juice and full of fresh herbs. Even in the height of the season, corn gets a touch sweeter when heated, and the easiest way to do it is in the microwave. It takes just a few minutes to zap the corn cobs in their husks, which makes them easy to shuck. The silks will slip right off the sweeter and still-crisp corn. Picking basil and cilantro leaves by hand then tearing them right over the salad keeps their delicate fragrance intact. Serve this with anything off the grill or alongside tacos or sandwiches.

Steps:
- Microwave the corn in their husks on high for 3 minutes. Shuck the corn - the silks will come off easily. (If you want to boil or steam the corn on the stovetop, you can shuck the corn first then cook just until brighter in color, 2 to 3 minutes.) Cut the kernels off the cobs, transfer them to a large bowl and add the tomatoes.
- Finely grate the zest of the lime directly over the corn mixture, then squeeze the juice from the lime all over. Add the oil, a generous pinch of salt and the chile, if using. Mix well, then tear the herbs over the salad and gently fold them in. Season to taste with salt and serve, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 day.

CORN AND TOMATO SALAD WITH CILANTRO DRESSING
Steps:
- Just before serving, pour dressing over corn mixture and toss.
Tips:
- Choose the freshest ingredients possible. Sweet corn, tomatoes, and cilantro are all at their best when they're fresh and in season. Look for corn that's plump and has a bright yellow color. Tomatoes should be ripe and juicy, with no blemishes. Cilantro should be fresh and green, with no signs of wilting.
- Don't overcook the corn. Corn is best when it's cooked just until it's tender-crisp. Overcooked corn will be mushy and bland.
- Use a sharp knife to dice the tomatoes and cilantro. This will help to prevent them from becoming bruised or crushed.
- Add the cilantro and lime juice just before serving. This will help to preserve their flavor and freshness.
- Serve the salad immediately. This salad is best enjoyed fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, you can refrigerate it for up to 2 hours. However, the cilantro may wilt slightly, so it's best to add it just before serving.
Conclusion:
This sweet corn and tomato salad with fresh cilantro is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that's perfect for summer cookouts and picnics. It's also a great way to use up fresh corn and tomatoes from your garden. With its simple ingredients and easy preparation, this salad is sure to become a favorite.
