Steps:

• Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high. Brush corn, scallions and jalapeño with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange on the grill and cook, turning occasionally, until corn kernels are browned in spots, 6 to 8 minutes, and the scallions and jalapeño are charred all over and tender, 9 to 10 minutes. Transfer vegetables to a cutting board and let cool slightly.
• In a medium bowl, using a whisk, mash the feta into a coarse paste. Whisk in buttermilk, lemon zest and juice and garlic, then stir in chives and parsley. Finely chop the charred jalapeño and stir it into the feta dressing; season with salt and pepper.
• In a large bowl, toss lettuce with half the feta dressing and arrange on a platter. Cut corn kernels off the cob and slice scallions into bite-size pieces. Arrange avocado slices, corn and scallions on top of the lettuce. Serve with remaining dressing.

• In a food processor, pulse scallions, garlic, anchovies, and basil until finely chopped. Add mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, 2 tablespoons water, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; purée until smooth. Transfer to a large bowl. Add avocados, stirring to fully coat in dressing. Top with corn and radishes, then romaine and bacon. Cover and refrigerate up to 8 hours. Toss to combine and evenly coat in dressing (or shake vigorously, if using a bowl with a resealable lid) just before serving.

• To a blender, add the avocado, garlic, buttermilk, sour cream and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper, then blend until smooth. Pour into a mixing bowl and mix in the dill and scallions.
