An oldie but a goodie!
Ingredients
- 1 can shoepeg corn (12 oz. We use regular kernel corn or white corn when we can't find shoepeg. I've also cut corn right off the cob for this.)
- 1/4 cup green bell pepper (chopped fine)
- 2 tablespoons pimento (diced)
- 1/2 cup onion (thinly sliced. I use red onion, Mom used sweet yellow onions. This is a good place for a mandolin!)
- 1/3 cup oil (your favorite - vegetable, canola, olive, etc.)
- 3 tablespoons sugar (Splenda also works, but I prefer real sugar here.)
- 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Note
This is a very flexible recipe that I almost always double. I'm not a fan of green bell pepper, so I generally omit them My mom always had them in there, though. They make it really pretty, too.
My mom used to make this! Oh my gosh, thank you for bringing back this old school recipe!
