Corn Salad With Basil Buttermilk Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine buttermilk and sour cream. Stir in cheese, basil, onion salt and garlic. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Serve over salad greens.

Steps:

• Microwave the corn in their husks on high for 3 minutes. Shuck the corn - the silks will come off easily. (If you want to boil or steam the corn on the stovetop, you can shuck the corn first then cook just until brighter in color, 2 to 3 minutes.) Cut the kernels off the cobs, transfer them to a large bowl and add the tomatoes.
• Finely grate the zest of the lime directly over the corn mixture, then squeeze the juice from the lime all over. Add the oil, a generous pinch of salt and the chile, if using. Mix well, then tear the herbs over the salad and gently fold them in. Season to taste with salt and serve, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 day.

Steps:

• Make corn bread: Heat oven to 350. Butter a deep 8-inch square baking dish or a 10-inch cast-iron skillet.
• In a bowl, whisk together melted butter, eggs and buttermilk. In another bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking soda and salt.
• Whisk wet ingredients into dry, pour into prepared pan, and bake 25 to 30 minutes or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in pan at least 30 minutes or up to 1 day.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Cut corn bread into 1-inch cubes, spread on an ungreased baking sheet and bake until dry and toasted.
• Make dressing: In a blender, combine all ingredients and purée until smooth and emulsified. Refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 1 day.
• Just before serving, make salad: In a large bowl, toss greens and shaved onion with half the dressing. Taste and add more dressing if needed.
• Divide on serving plates and garnish with tomatoes, croutons, and cheese and bacon, if using.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Remove husks and silks from ears of corn. Drizzle corn with 1 tablespoon olive oil; place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until crisp-tender.
• Cool until safe enough to handle. Cut corn kernels from cobs into large bowl. Add remaining ingredients. Mix well.
• Cover and refrigerate salad until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt using a large heavy knife.
• Whisk together buttermilk, mayonnaise, basil, and garlic paste in a small bowl. Chill, covered, 1 hour to allow flavors to develop.

Steps:

• Whisk mayonnaise, vinegar, 1/4 cup olive oil, garlic, water, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, Italian seasoning, and a pinch cayenne pepper together in a bowl until dressing is thick and creamy. Cover dressing with plastic wrap and refrigerate, 8 hours or overnight.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir corn in hot oil until light golden brown and toasted, about 15 minutes.
• Mix corn and red pepper together in a bowl. Pour enough dressing over corn mixture to coat completely. Season with salt and black pepper.
• Stir basil and a pinch cayenne pepper into corn mixture; toss.
