Serve warm or chill and serve more like a potato salad. If not a big fan of basil and/or you are Polish, sub fresh dill.

The punch line is that there are so many moving parts of a football team that the impact of the unseen/unidentified is often greater than the seen/identified. Numen Lumen

Our conclusion was that the potatoes were the part of the salad we liked least. I'd maybe replace the potatoes with a bean of some kind or reduce the amount of potatoes. It may have helped if I cut them in smaller chunks too. The sweet corn with the basil/lemon really was a taste treat! I made a variation of this today with black beans instead of potatoes and added green onions/scallions. It was delicious. My conclusion (again) is that the basil, fresh corn, and lemon make the dish - try whatever you have around for the rest of it! Your Text Signature ... Last Edited By: AKA TAW July 23, 2011 8:18 PM.
