Recently, while driving around looking at the aspen leaves changing to gold, we had lunch in a little mountain town. The restaurant advertised home cooking and I settled on a chicken salad sandwich on a croissant which was described as "just like your mama used to make." To my surprise the chicken salad contained whole-kernel corn. What?? Did your mama used to make it like that?
Never have seen that and I order it a lot. I like mine with some onion, celery, grapes or dried cranberries and a little bit of chopped nuts (almonds usually) and of course some seasoning.
Nope. Mom never made chicken salad. Depending on the other ingredients the corn might be okay. I don't know that I would care for it with a typical mayo based chicken salad.
Corn was in all the tuna sandwiches I saw in Ireland, so I started using it in mine, too. Recently did try it in chicken salad (raw, not canned or roasted), and will certainly do so again. I also use raw corn in salads of every kind (potato, pasta, green). It's got a sweet, starchy crunch. I sometimes use leftover, sometimes just raw off the cob. Love it!
