Ingredients

For the dressing:

  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup good extra-virgin olive oil
For the salad:
  • 1 ear of sweet corn
  • 4 ounces baby arugula
  • 2 ounces good quality Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
Directions:
Add lemon juice, salt, and sugar to a small stainless stell bowl.  Whisk to combine.  As you continue to whisk, add the olive oil in a steady stream until it is completely combined.  Set aside.  Husk the corn making sure to remove the silk and rinse.  In a medium stainless steel bowl, stand up the ear of corn and cut the kernels from the cob with a very sharp knife making sure not to cut yourself in the process.  Add the arugula and add the dressing to taste.  Toss with your hands to combine.  Divide between 4 chilled salad plates and shave 1/2 ounce Parmigiano-Reggiano over each salad.  Serve immediately.
