The Make

Cut corn from cob into a small saucepan

Place bread in oven to toast


Put tomatoes in mixing dish; sliced


In small mini mixer put fresh lemon juice two garlic cloves a few peppercorns a dash of Italian parsley a dash of salt ½ cup olive oil and grand into an emulsion and stop


Drain corn and mix in with tomatoes


Mix in a generous handful of torn fresh basil



Check on bread so it does not get over toasted
