Grilled Corn Greek Salad 🌽

Posted by markhadland on
Charred corn provides a deep savory flavor

This super simple salad has become one of my favorites of this 2022 summer. It’s easy to make, packs some complex flavors together, and I think the charred corn with the reserve sherry vinegar add just enough “Je ne sais quoi” to really make this salad pop!

Ingredients

6 ears of corn

2 English cucumbers

1 red onion

2 large cloves of garlic

8oz of feta cheese

1/2 bunch of cilantro – about 1 cup chopped

2 dozen pitted kalamata olives

2-4 tablespoons EVOO

2 – tablespoons of sherry vinegar – I really am fond of an aged sherry vinegar called Vinagre de Jerez Reserva from Columela – but any decent sherry, red, champagne, or balsamic vinegar will suffice

Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

Shuck and grill the corn until slightly charred, then remove the kernels with a knife

Seed and dice the cucumbers

Dice the red onion

Chop the cilantro

Dice the feta

Add in the kalamata olives, EVOO, and sherry vinegar and season to taste

Mix well
Enjoy
