Remove the kernels from the raw corn ears. After the kernels have been removed, run the back of your knife over the leftover cobs to "milk" the corn. Once you cannot get any more corn bits or corn milk from the cob, discard the cob.
Add all of the other ingredients to the raw kernels, kernel bits, and corn milk. Stir to combine. You may serve immediately, or let it sit in the fridge for up to 5 days before serving.
Notes
If you find red onion too strong, feel free to substitute Vidalia Onion or another sweet onion
