Step 1:

How do you make a salad with Korean-style carrots, cucumber, and corn? Gather the ingredients you'll need: Korean-style carrots, canned corn, fresh cucumbers, and some fresh herbs. You'll also need a little vegetable oil and salt to taste.
Step 2:

In a roomy salad bowl, combine the Korean-style carrots and canned corn, stirring to make it easier (drain the liquid from the corn carefully; the weight is given without the liquid).
Step 3:

Wash the fresh cucumbers, and if they have tough or bitter skin, peel it off. Chop the cucumbers into small cubes slightly larger than the corn kernels.
Step 4:

Wash the fresh herbs (parsley, fragrant dill), shake off the excess moisture, and chop them finely. Use the tough stems for other dishes.
Step 5:

Dress the salad with vegetable oil, add salt to taste, mix, and serve.

You can boost the goodness of this Korean-style carrot, cucumber, and corn salad by adding spices to taste - freshly ground black pepper is just perfect! For variety, you can add a little colorful bell pepper and a few olives. Cut them the same way as the cucumbers, into small cubes the size of the corn. This bright, juicy salad with Korean-style carrots and corn can be served with boiled rice or fried or baked potatoes.
How do you buy canned corn the right way? Always check the expiration date on the can. If the container is glass, examine the kernels closely. They should be uniform in size and color, whole, and unblemished. The ingredients shouldn't include dyes, preservatives, or flavor enhancers.
