Charred Corn Salad with Basil and Tomatoes

Ingredients for Charred Corn Salad with Basil and Tomatoes

• 12 ears of corn, husked

• 6 tablespoons olive oil, divided

• 240ml thinly sliced red onion

• 2 large tomatoes, chopped

• 1 cup (loosely packed) fresh basil leaves, large leaves torn

• 1/3 cup (or more) fresh lime juice

• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme

• Sale kosher, pepe macinato fresco

Build a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill, or heat a gas grill to high. Rub corn with 1 tablespoon oil. Grill, turning frequently, until corn is charred and heated through, 10-12 minutes. Remove from grill; when cool enough to handle, cut kernels from cobs and transfer to a large bowl. DO AHEAD: Corn can be made 3 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.

Place onion in a strainer and rinse with cold water to mellow its flavour. Drain well. Mix onion, remaining 5 tablespoons oil, tomatoes, basil, 1/3 cup lime juice, and thyme into corn. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and more lime juice, if desired. DO AHEAD: Salad can be assembled 1 hour ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
