Ingredients

• 3 tbsp sesame seeds
• 8 oz button mushrooms, quartered
• 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
• Kosher salt and black pepper
• 3 ears corn, shucked
• 1/4 cup rice vinegar
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 1 bunch cilantro, chopped
• 1 small shallot, finely chopped
• 1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 cup thinly sliced radishes
• 1 red jalapeno pepper, seeded and thinly sliced

Directions

1. Toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat until slightly golden, about 1 minute. Immediately transfer to a bowl to cool.

2. Preheat the broiler. Toss the mushrooms with the sesame oil on a baking sheet and broil until golden and crisp, about 5 minutes. Pour off any excess liquid, season with salt and pepper and set aside to cool.

3. Put the corn on a baking sheet; broil, turning occasionally, until slightly charred, 5-8 minutes. Set aside to cool.

4. Make the vinaigrette: Whisk the vinegar, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Gradually whisk in the vegetable oil to make a smooth dressing. Stir in half of the cilantro, the shallot and 2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds. Add the tomatoes, radishes, jalapeno, mushrooms and the remaining cilantro; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.

5. Cut the corn kernels off the cobs; scatter them over the salad and gently toss to combine. Sprinkle with the remaining sesame seeds.
