Two weekends ago at the farmers market I overheard Peter at Peter's Pumpkins {my sweet corn vendor of choice} say that he would have sweet corn the following Saturday. I was so excited!
I have tons of recipes I want to make with fresh sweet corn {and more importantly, nothing beats the taste of fresh local sweet corn.} I decided to make this Corn and Blueberry Salad first. I knew blueberries were in season and hoped cucumbers would be as well. However, assuming I would have sweet corn was my mistake. I got to the market 10 minutes after it opened and he was sold out. Ugh! But the good news was I got blueberries and a cucumber. I stopped at Whole Foods to get two ears of sweet corn {from Florida - not exactly local.}
Don't be fooled by the strange mix of vegetables and fruit in this salad. {P.S. - I made the salad without the cilantro and jalapeño pepper.} It is so ridiculously good. It is fresh with some crispness. I really have just one word for this - Yummy!
Try to stay cool everybody.
very refreshing! I'm a fan of sweet corn myself :)
