Recipe View Chill and Marinate (at least 2 hours): Cover the bowl tightly and refrigerate the salad for a minimum of 2 hours, or preferably longer, to allow the flavors to meld and intensify. This step is crucial for the best taste and texture.

For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the corn before adding it to the salad.
If you don't have grapeseed oil, olive oil or avocado oil work well as substitutes.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the vinaigrette for a little heat.
This salad is also delicious with crumbled cotija cheese or feta on top.
Fresh corn off the cob is excellent when in season, but frozen works great too!
