A delightful and creamy salad featuring fresh corn, bacon, and a tangy dressing, perfect for summer gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh corn kernels
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
  • 2 tbsp chopped green onions
  • 1/4 cup bacon bits
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

  1. Blanch the Corn: If using fresh corn, blanch kernels in boiling water for 2 minutes, then drain and cool. If using frozen corn, simply thaw and drain excess water.
  2. Prepare the Dressing: In a large bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, granulated sugar, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Combine the Ingredients: Gently fold in the corn kernels, diced red bell pepper, chopped green onions, bacon bits, and fresh cilantro. Ensure everything is evenly coated in that luscious dressing.
  4. Chill the Salad: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This waiting period allows all the flavors to meld together beautifully.
  5. Final Touches: Once chilled, give the salad a final stir before serving. Adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed, and you’re ready to wow your guests!

Notes

For the freshest taste, use in-season corn. This salad is versatile and can be served with a variety of dishes.
