My review

Twila Davis Reed
"An exciting, cool and refreshing side salad that goes great with grilled meat. Fantastic for get-togethers. You WILL be asked for the recipe! Reserve a piece of sliced tomato and a few cilantro sprigs for garnish."

Prep

Ready In
- In a large bowl, combine the corn, tomatoes, sweet onion, green onion, and cilantro. Squeeze lime juice over mixture, and mix in. Stir in rice vinegar to taste; the amount you use will depend on the sweetness of the corn, and the acidity of the lime. Season with kosher salt.
- Cover, and chill for 45 minutes to an hour. Stir before serving.
Footnotes
- Cook's Note:
- You can substitute fresh corn that has been cut off the cob. Just blanch the corn briefly in lightly sugared and salted water.

This was very pretty but bland. I made it for Thanksgiving, because I thought it would make a good side and it pretty much sat untouched. If I make it again, I will skip the rice vinegar (too s...

This is a very fresh tasting salad, with no oil, which I enjoy. The onion was a little overpowering, but that is definitely something I can just cut back on for my taste.

Excellent salad for summer, especially for BBQ's. I used fresh corn, blanched lightly and Santa Sweets tomatoes, diced. Red onion went especially well.
