Delicious! More than 4 servings I would say though.

You don't have to cook the corn first - it actually tastes very sweet and yummy raw in this salad.

Question: don't you cook the corn first?

This is a wonderful cold pasta salad. It is perfect for those hot summer days. It is a very flavorful salad that tickles my taste buds!

Delicious as written, and also optionally with a bit of finely chopped fresh mint. [I made edits to this recipe.]

Really superb, light salad. I cut down on the dressing (by half), and reduced the dijon mustard ratio due to personal preference of the diners. Flavors were really terrific! A great springtime/summer salad.

Really good. I only had red wine vinegar - I will try again with the white wine vinegar next time.
