• Heat a large, flat sauté pan. When it's warm, add a good amount of olive oil. Turn the heat down to medium-high, and add the garlic and onion.
• Sprinkle them lightly with kosher salt. Stir periodically for a few minutes, until the onions and garlic have begun to become translucent, then add the tomatoes or cucumbers (or combination). Let sizzle for two minutes, then add the corn and a sprinkle of water.
• Raise the heat, stir once or twice, taste for salt and adjust, then add a few drops of vinegar. Mix through. Turn off heat, add herbs, stir.

BEST EVER FRESH SWEETCORN SALAD

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with salted water and bring to a boil.
• Break each ear of corn in half so it will fit in the pot, and cook until tender and the starchiness is just gone. Drain and immediately immerse the ears of corn in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking and to set the color. When the corn is cool, cut the kernels off the cob, cutting close to the cob.
• Toss the kernels in a large bowl with the red onions, roasted red peppers, vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
• Just before serving, toss in the fresh basil. If you add the basil too early and let the salad sit for a long period of time before serving, it will wilt and darken.
• Taste for seasonings and serve cold or at room temperature.
