How to Make Corn Salad With Tomatoes, Feta and Mint

1. Combine Ingredients

Begin by placing the corn kernels, chopped tomatoes, crumbled feta cheese, and fresh mint leaves into a medium bowl.

2. Add Olive Oil

Next, drizzle the extra-virgin olive oil over the salad.

3. Toss Salad

Once the olive oil is added, gently toss the salad using a spoon or tongs until all ingredients are evenly coated.

4. Season Salad

Finally, season the salad with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Taste as you go to make sure the seasoning is just right.

5. Serve

Transfer the salad to a serving dish and enjoy immediately.

Pitfalls and tips

Selecting the Produce

Choose the freshest, sweetest corn and ripe, juicy, in-season tomatoes, like heirloom varieties for a mix of colors and flavors.

Serving

Serve the salad at room temperature to ensure peak flavors and textures.

Cooking the Corn

Blanch fresh corn for 2-3 minutes and then plunge into an ice bath to preserve its crisp texture.

Dressing

Make a light vinaigrette with quality extra-virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice or white wine vinegar, and a touch of honey.

Seasoning

Lightly salt tomatoes and let them sit to draw out juices (maceration) before adding to the salad, including the juices for depth of flavor.
