Green Bean, Corn, and Tomato Salad
- 3 ears corn, husked
- 1 1/2 pounds green beans, trimmed
- 3 garlic cloves, smashed
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
- 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 yellow tomato, sliced 1/2 inch thick
- 2 cups mixed small tomatoes, preferably heirloom, halved
- Coarse salt
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
- Cook the corn until kernels are crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Remove corn with tongs and let cool.
- Using a small sieve, remove any corn silk remaining in the pot.
- Add green beans to pot, return water to a boil, and cook until very tender, 5 to 8 minutes (depending on the size).
- Meanwhile, slice the corn kernels from the cobs into a large bowl.
- Drain the green beans in a colander, shake to remove excess water, and add to corn.
- Add garlic and 3 tablespoons oil.
- Toss well and let stand 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend.
- (Bean mixture can be refrigerated, covered with plastic wrap, up to 8 hours; bring to room temperature before proceeding.)
- Just before serving, remove the garlic and add the remaining tablespoon of oil along with vinegar, onion, and tomatoes.
- Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste), and serve.
