Corn salad, also known as 'Valerianella locusta', is an herbaceous plant with concave leaves and an attractive gray-green color. This plant thrives in temperate climates, with Navarra being one of the regions in Spain where it is notably present. Its fresh, tender appearance makes it an ideal ingredient in gastronomy, commonly used in salads for its delicate flavor and crunchy texture. Additionally, corn salad can be transformed into a delicious pesto; you can mix about 100 grams of corn salad with 40 grams of shelled pistachios, 70 grams of Parmesan cheese, one clove of garlic, and a tablespoon of olive oil. This pesto can serve as an excellent sauce for pasta and various dishes. It is important to highlight that corn salad should be stored in the refrigerator, and its shelf life is usually two to three days. To prolong its freshness, it is recommended to perforate the storage bag if purchased in one, allowing for better air circulation.
