    Celiac.com 09/25/2021 - Summer may be officially over, but there's still plenty of good corn to be found. So, get yourself some good, fresh corn on the cob, boil it up until it's ready, and cut the kernels off with a paring knife. Mix it all up with some vinegar, tomatoes, oil, basil and a dash of salt and pepper, and you're ready to complement nearly any entrée with some sweet, fresh deliciousness.

    Ingredients:

    • 6 ears corn, husked and cleaned
    • 3 large tomatoes, diced
    • 1 large onion, diced
    • ¼ cup chopped fresh basil
    • ¼ cup olive oil
    • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
    • salt and pepper to taste

    Directions:
    Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook corn in boiling water for 7 to 10 minutes, or until desired tenderness. 

    Drain, cool, and cut kernels off the cob with a sharp knife.

    In a large mixing bowl, toss the corn, tomatoes, onion, basil, oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. 

    Serve chilled.

    Suggestion:  Corn is so much easier to cut off the cob when it's raw! 

    For best results, use the inverted double-bowl method and a cleaver to shave the corn into the larger bowl.  The smaller bowl goes upside-down inside the larger and gives you a place to rest the end of the cob while you're shaving. The bigger bowl should be your largest mixing bowl, so you have room.  (To keep the small bowl from sliding, you can place a wet towel between the bowls.)

    Cut off the corn and freeze the kernals in a zip-lock bag until you're ready to use. Then scoop out what you need into a microwave-safe bowl, cover with a wet paper towl and steam in the microwave for about a minute before following the rest of this recipe!
