If your corn is exceptionally sweet, you can use the kernels raw, and you'll have an even fresher, crisper salad to enjoy in less time. But sauteing the corn does bring out a different flavor and texture, and each variation is worth trying at least once.If you're going to saute your corn, I suggest you do that first, set the corn aside in your salad bowl to cool, give it a couple of stirs or tosses to release some of the heat, and then do your knifework on the rest of the ingredients while the corn cools.And you already know I'm not such a stickler for upscale ingredients, but if you can get your hands on some sweet, flavorful heirloom tomatoes, they really do make the salad better.If you'd like to give it a slightly more complex flavor, some optional spices that would work well individually in this salad in small amounts (1/8 to 1/4 teaspoonful): cumin, chipotle, smoked paprika, coriander, or even a little curry powder.

This was a great recipe I found at the yummly website but made some additions. I added chick peas, black olives sundried tomatoes and a bit of garlic powder. Very refreshing and filling! Will make again :-)

My favorite summer corn salad dish

In midsummer, with peak-season produce, there is nothing better. Use fresh mint, not dried.

I came up with this recipe on the spur of the moment.Thinly slice the onions (you can use a slicer).This also tastes great topped with bonito flakes or chives. For 2 servings. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

I like kabocha salad, and made it with sweet onions.In Step 1, add a little water when boiling the kabocha for a tasty finish.Don't soak the onion in water for too long.It's nice if you add canned tuna too.You can use shio-koji instead of salt.It's still tasty even if you don't add onion.Homemade Mayonnaise.

Here in Southern California, we're back to al fresco dining weather, and we like to enjoy it as much a possible.One of our favorite al fresco meals is a wine, cheese, and salumi lunch, and this simple tomato salad made specifically with red wine vinegar is one of my favorite accompaniments. You could totally use another kind of vinegar if you like, but there's just something about the flavor of red wine vinegar that I love in this salad. :)If you can get them, sweet onions like Vidalias or Mayan Sweets are ideal.

I absolutely love the combination of these flavors. I wanted everyone to try it at least once so I uploaded the recipe here!The oranges I used this time were small, so I used one per person, cut it into half and then sliced them into about 7-8 mm. If you have large oranges, cut them into quarters first.If you don't have sweet onions, use regular onions, soaked in salted water or massaged with a little salt to get rid of the harshness. For 2 servings. Recipe by rie-tin
