Ingredients
Instructions
Bring 1 inch of water to a boil in a stockpot. Remove the husk and lean or stand the corn in the boiling water, stem end down. Boil for 4-5 minutes, then remove the corn and let it cool. Optional step: dunk them in a bowl of cold or ice-cold water to cool quickly and to stop the cooking process.
While the corn cooks and cools, prepare the bacon. Place the bacon pieces in a cold skillet. Cook on medium to medium-high, stirring frequently until brown and crisp, about 8 to 10 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.
Lay a kitchen towel on the work surface, then hold the ear of corn with the pointed tip down on the towel. Use a sharp knife to cut along the cob to remove the kernels.
Add all of the dressing ingredients to a bowl and whisk to combine.
Place the kernels, bacon, onion, scallion, and cheese in a large mixing bowl. Add the ranch dressing. Toss to combine. Refrigerate for at least one hour for the flavors to meld before serving.
Makes 6 servings.
