Fresh Summer Corn Salad

Call me country but summer time is not the same without good old sweet corn. I can remember picking sweet corn by the bushel full not to mention the ears of feed corn  we would pick. Those feed sacks we would fill full when I was a little girl sure do look a lot smaller than they would back then. I love to fix corn in many different ways from right off the cob to frying in a cast iron skillet they are all yummy. This not so new to me recipe is one that I plan to fix next time we have folks over for a grill out. I hope you try it and enjoy as well.
