How To Make corn salad

  • Step 1
    To make the lime vinaigrette, whisk the lime juice, honey, ground cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, whisking continuously.
  • Step 2
    Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the sugar and lemon juice; stir to dissolve. Carefully add the corn to the boiling water, cover the pot, turn off the heat, and let the corn sit for 10 minutes. Plunge the cooked corn into ice-cold water to stop the cooking process. When the corn has cooled, cut the kernels from the cob.
  • Step 3
    Grab a large bowl and add the cooked corn, diced red peppers, grape tomato halves, cilantro, green onions, minced jalapenos, feta, and red onion. Drizzle with the lime vinaigrette and toss to coat.
