RECIPES FROM CHEF MARK
 
Mark has now been with Vancouver Parks Golf more than two years and has been working hard to bring you new and exciting offerings. Watch for recipes that you can make at home from Mark throughout the season.

Chef Mark's Fresh Corn Salad

Ingredients:
  • 5 ears of corn, shucked - cleaned of husk and sillk
  • 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup small-diced red onion (1 small onion)
  • 1/2 cup julienne fresh basil leaves  
  • 3 tablespoons good olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 diced Red pepper 
Directions:

1. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the corn for 3 minutes.
2. Drain and immerse it in ice water to stop the cooking and to set the color.
3. When the corn is cool, cut the kernels off the cob, cutting close to the cob.
4. Toss the kernels in a large bowl with the red onions, red pepper, vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Just before serving, toss in the fresh basil. Taste for seasonings and serve cold or at room temperature. ENJOY!
