Summer Harvest Corn Salad - Bogle Vineyards

Ingredients:

5 ears of white sweet corn, shucked
1 large red bell pepper
½ cup scallions, white and green parts chopped
½ cup fresh cilantro, chopped (or parsley, if you prefer)
½ cup feta cheese, crumbled
1 lime, juiced
Salt & pepper, to taste
Cayenne pepper, or Tabasco (optional)

Cooking Instructions:

On the stovetop, boil a large pot of water. When it comes to a boil, submerge the corn, allowing to cook just 4 minutes. Remove and immediately place under cold water to stop the cooking process.
When cool enough to handle, place cobs one at a time in a large bowl and carefully cut away the kernels from the cob with a knife. (Make sure to cut away from you, toward the bottom of the bowl.)
Loosely crumble the corn with your fingers to separate the kernels.
Add the bell pepper, scallions, cilantro and feta to the bowl. Mix to combine.
Juice the lime over the mixture and add salt and pepper, to taste. If you like a bit of heat, you can add a dash of cayenne pepper or Tabasco, if you like!vMix well and chill for a bit.
