Quick corn salsa with coriander stems & feta cheese

I wanted to create a recipe that showcases the coriander stems, because they are, without a doubt, my favorite part. We always talk about the leaves, but the stems are so fragrant, crunchy, and full of flavor that I find it almost a shame they so often end up in the compost.

I'm on vacation, I had some leftover corn from dinner and I improvised this salsa.

The crunchy stems, the saltiness of the feta, the sweetness of the corn and the freshness of the cucumbers… a dream.
