Grilled Corn Salad With Toasted Cumin Dressing

Cumin seeds are first toasted to release their intense aroma and flavor, then added to the dressing for this refreshingly light summer salad. Together with sweet papaya, grilled corn, and crunchy chayote squash, this dish has an appealing range of colors, textures and flavors.
