Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Corn — If using fresh corn, boil it for 5-7 minutes until tender. If using canned corn, make sure to drain and rinse it before adding it to the salad.

Tips & Tricks

  • For added crunch, you can sprinkle some toasted sunflower seeds or chopped walnuts on top of the salad.
  • Feel free to customize the salad by adding other vegetables such as cherry tomatoes or radishes.
  • If you prefer a milder flavor, you can reduce the amount of vinegar in the dressing.

Serving advice

Serve the Polish Corn Salad as a refreshing side dish alongside grilled meats, roasted chicken, or as a topping for tacos or quesadillas.

Presentation advice

To enhance the presentation, garnish the salad with a few sprigs of fresh parsley or a sprinkle of paprika for a pop of color.
