. Cut the tomatoes into chunky pieces and place in a large bowl. Cut cherry tomatoes in half. For larger tomatoes, cut in half, slice out the core, and then cut into chunky pieces.
Add the corn and the onions to the tomatoes and toss to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, olive oil and sugar. Pour this vinaigrette over the corn salad and stir to coat. Add the basil and season well with salt and pepper.
Let the salad sit at least 30 minutes to let the flavors develop before serving. To serve, stir well to coat ingredients with vinaigrette. Garnish with fresh basil if desired.
