Spicy Corn Salad



Sweet corn cut off from the cobs is generally eaten with peas (where this combination, given the practicality of steamed canned grains in an urban diet, is a frequent addition to diverse meals such as salads, stews, soups, pasta, and, most famously, whole sausage hot dogs.  Sweetcorn provides useful amounts of vitamins A, B3 which supports metabolism, the nervous and digestive systems and C. It also contains folic acid and fiber.

Boiling is the classic way to prepare sweet corn. You can either use a wide, flat pan and lay the corn on its side, or use a taller stockpot to boil a big batch at once. Either way, fill the pan with enough water to cover the corn and bring it to a boil. Shuck off the outer husk and silk from the corn. Dissolve a tablespoon of salt in the water and add the corn. If your corn is very fresh, cook it for three to five minutes. For corn that’s a few days old, go for six to eight minutes. You can boil them in microwave too or grill them! fresh sweet corn has much less calories than that of in the field corn and other cereal grains like wheat, rice, etc. Sweet-corn kernels can be used much like a vegetable rather than as a cereal grain. In general, its whole or section of the cob may be served as a main dish.
