  • Place the onion in a small bowl and cover with cold water. Let stand for 15 minutes. Drain and blot dry with a kitchen towel.
  • Prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium heat (350° to 450°F).
    Prepare the grill for cooking over medium heat (400°F).
  • Lightly brush the corn with oil and lightly season with salt. Brush the cut-sides of the baguette with oil and lightly season with salt.
  • Brush the cooking grates clean. Grill the corn over direct medium heat, with the lid closed, until slightly charred and softened a bit, about 10 minutes, turning occasionally. During the last 3 to 5 minutes of cooking time, grill the baguette over direct medium heat, cut-sides down at first, until grill-marked and golden brown, turning once.

  • Transfer the corn and bread to a cutting board. When cool to the touch, lay the ear of corn flat on the cutting board, and, using a sharp knife, slice along the length to remove the kernels, rotating the ear after each cut until all the kernels are removed. Tear the bread into bite-size pieces.
  • Spread the arugula in a large shallow serving bowl. Scatter the tomatoes, corn and onion over the arugula, and top with the bread. Gently combine. Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad and serve immediately.
