Raw Corn and Tomato Salad

• 3 tablespoons walnut oil
• 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
• 12 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leave

1. In a medium bowl, whisk the walnut oil, vinegars, thyme and sugar if using.
2. Set aside.
3. Use a serrated knife to carefully cut the kernels from the ears of corn.
4. To do this, one at a time stand each ear on its wide end, then saw the knife down the length of the cob.
5. Discard the cobs(I put cobs in freezer to use later to make veg.
6. stock).
7. To the bowl with the dressing, add the corn kernels, tomatoes, onion and chickpeas.
8. Toss well.
9. Divide the greens between 4 serving plates, then top with the corn mixture.
