Ingredients
8 servings
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add salt and corn. Cook for 5 minutes, then transfer cobs to a paper towel-lined plate to cool and dry.
- When cool, cut the kernels off the cob and transfer the kernels to a medium bowl. Stir in tomatoes. Refrigerate while making the dressing.
- In a small saucepan, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, sugar, cornstarch, oregano and basil. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the dressing thickens slightly, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Remove from heat, season with salt and pepper, and set aside to cool.
- When ready to serve, drizzle dressing on top of the salad and toss gently. Garnish with additional basil, if desired.
