Simple question: how many 5-minute recipes do you know? I love cooking and I could spend hours in the kitchen, but this corn tomato salad is beyond any limits as you can make it in…. ONLY FIVE MINUTES! I wish you could taste it with me, I am getting a seat ready for you, are you coming over? 🙂
I know people who don’t like corn. My Mom is one of them and the reason why she doesn’t like it is because it’s too sweet. Well okay, it is sweet, but it is crunchy and you can make so many nice meals with it. This corn tomato salad is not only delicious, the texture is really nice, and especially the crunchiness! And the mint… Hard to find the right words to describe the flavor that is so fresh and inviting.
I can’t keep this for me, I have to say it. What is SPECIAL about this salad? Nope…. Naaahhh… Think twice! Not even this. Come again? No. Nope. Not at all… Okay, a part from the corn tomato salad being super fresh and crunchy, what does it look like? The colors? The shapes? Anything else that you think differs this salad from others? Okay, let me tell you…
THE COLORS! It’s about the colors. See, this corn tomato salad has yellow, green and red; red, white and green… These are the colors of Lithuanian and Italian flags 😀 Okay, you may call me crazy, but when I prepare this salad, it makes me smile as I think of how lucky I am to be where I am today, and how thankful I have to be to the people around me who in a way or another had influenced my path. And here I am in Milan, Italy, telling you some stories about my life and sharing my passion for food and cooking.
Do you ever notice the colors of your dishes? Or maybe pay attention to it and even follow the rainbow diet? Is there any color that you like most when it comes to food? Say I love butternut squash soup or broccoli soup because of their colors. What about yours? Let me know in the comments below!
And what about plates? I’ve recently read an article on blue color that is scientifically approved as the appetite suppressant! This is intense, isn’t it? It means we can prepare much more than just this corn tomato salad, eat it on a blue plate and never get full (and I wish never gain weight either lol)
