- 4 cups broccoli florets about 2 medium heads
- 1 cup canned sweet corn drained
- ½ medium red onion finely chopped
- ½ cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
Prepare the Broccoli: Wash and dry the broccoli florets. If you'd like a softer texture, blanch the broccoli by boiling it in salted water for 2-3 minutes. Immediately transfer it to ice water to maintain the bright green color and crispness. Drain and pat dry.
Assemble the Salad: In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli florets, sweet corn, and finely chopped red onion.
Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream with a pinch of salt and pepper. For a touch of tanginess, you can add a teaspoon of lemon juice or Dijon mustard.
Mix and Coat: Pour the dressing over the broccoli, corn, and red onion. Toss everything gently until all the ingredients are evenly coated.
Chill and Serve: For the best flavor, chill the salad in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
