CORN AND BACON SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the corn and cook until slightly soft but still crisp, about 5 minutes. Cut corn kernels from the cobs; discard cobs.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir bacon in hot oil until browned and crisp, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, reserving drippings in the skillet.
• Cook potatoes, stirring occasionally, in the same skillet over medium heat until potatoes are golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add red bell pepper and salt; cook and stir until peppers are tender, about 5 minutes more.
• Stir corn kernels into potato mixture and cook until corn is heated through, about 5 minutes.

TOMATO BACON CORN SALAD

Steps:

• In a wok or large skillet set over medium-high heat, add the bacon and cook, stirring, until it is very crisp, and the fat has rendered, about 10 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside. Pour the bacon fat out from the skillet until about 2 tablespoons remain. Return the pan to medium-high heat, add the shallots to the bacon fat, and cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the corn and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the corn begins to brown, about 6 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and chiles. Add the crispy bacon and fish sauce and remove from the heat. Then add the cilantro, lime juice and avocado. Gently toss to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Serve warm, chilled or at room temperature.

CHIPOTLE CORN SALAD WITH GRILLED BACON

Steps:

• Carefully peel back the husks from the corn without detaching them from the bottom. Remove the silk from the corn, fold the husks back around the ears, and soak the ears in water for 30 to 45 minutes.
• Weigh down the ears so they are fully submerged.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high.
• Drain the corn, open the husks, and dry the ears with paper towels. Fold the husks back over the corn and grill, turning often, for 3 to 4 minutes per side, turning 3 times.
• While the corn is grilling, grill the bacon on the other half of the grill until crispy and golden brown and the poblanos and scallions until charred. Remove all items and set aside.
• Once the corn is cool enough to handle, cut the kernels from the cob, finely dice the scallions, seed and dice the poblano, and chop the bacon into bite-size pieces, placing everything in a large bowl. Mix in the bell pepper and onion.
• Whisk together all the dressing ingredients in a medium bowl.
• Dress the salad lightly and serve.

ARUGULA CORN SALAD WITH BACON RECIPE

Steps:

• Cook the corn ears, in their husks, either on the grill for a smokey flavor, or by steaming in a large covered stock pot with an inch of boiling water at the bottom of the pot, for 12-15 minutes.
• Let the corn cool (can run under cold water to speed up the cooling), remove the husks and silk. I recommend cooking the corn in the husks for the added flavor that the husks impart.
• If you boil or steam the corn ears after you've already husked them, or if you cook them in the microwave, reduce the cooking time by a few minutes.To remove the kernels from the cobs, stand a corn cob vertically over a large, shallow bowl.
• Use a sharp knife to make long, downward strokes, removing the kernels from the cob, as you work your way around the cob. Note: it may help to work over a low table, to be in a better ergonomic position to cut the cobs this way.
• In a medium sized bowl, mix together the corn, chopped arugula, bacon, and onions. In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, salt and pepper, and cumin.
• Mix dressing into salad just before serving. Taste and add more vinegar if necessary to balance the sweetness of the corn.
