- Prepare 2 Tablespoons olive oil (1 for sauteing corn, 1 for dressing)
- Get 2 medium beefsteak tomatoes (heirlooms are great if you can get 'em), cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- Get 1/4-1/2 small sweet onion, minced
- Make ready 5-6 leaves basil, chiffonaded/chopped (fresh mint, parsley, and cilantro also work well)
- Prepare 2-2.5 Tablespoons white or red wine vinegar or fresh lemon or lime juice
- Prepare 1/4-1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps to make Simple Fresh Corn & Tomato Salad:
- If you're going to saute your corn, preheat your pan and 1 Tablespoon oil to medium high heat, add the corn and saute for 3 to 5 minutes, or until most of the kernels start to turn translucent. Set aside in salad bowl and cool as suggested above.
- Add in the rest of the ingredients, starting with the lower end of the seasoning measurements, and give the salad a few gentle folds to evenly incorporate all the ingredients and seasonings.
- Adjust seasoning if needed. If you have time to chill it in the fridge for 15 to 20 minutes before serving, that's ideal, but no biggie if you don't.
- Enjoy! :)

If the corn is very fresh and in season, you can skip the granulated sugar—you won't need it. Simply scrape the corn off the cob with a knife, including the milk (aka the juices from the corn).
