I’ve started working out how to merge my increased kitchen time with the need to paint every day. I hope to feed my family while also honing speedy painting/oil sketch skills.
In this video I demo my painting process using produce on the counter as my subject, and follow up with a cooking process of how I made an improvised grilled corn salad.
I have no idea if this will work or not, but thought I’d bring you along and show you how I’m doing it right now! Thanks for joining in the fun!
Here's a loose recipe of what I made:
4 ears of grilled corn
About 1 cup leftover grilled vegetables: bell peppers and onion
1 cucumber
1 large carrot
about 1/8 of a fresh red onion (a few slices)
1 small bunch parsley
Dressing
a little less than 1/4 cup sherry vinegar (or any other vinegar you prefer: white wine, balsamic come to mind)
about 1 tsp cumin
about 1 tsp salt
about 1/2 tsp black pepper
about 1/4 tsp red pepper: aleppo pepper, silk chili pepper, red pepper flakes
1 clove garlic, minced or pressed
2 tsp dijon mustard
a little less than 1/2 cup olive oil
Remove kernels from corn and chop all the other vegetables into small pieces similar in size to the corn kernels, except finely mince the fresh red onion and the parsley.
Dressing: Whisk all dressing ingredients together besides the olive oil in a glass measuring cup or small bowl. Then while briskly whisking the dressing, slowly drizzle in the olive oil.
Pour the dressing over the salad and stir to combine. Taste to see if any seasonings need to be adjusted. Refrigerate until ready to eat, or enjoy at room temp.
Make the dressing: Mix together everything excep
