1. Whisk all of your dressing ingredients together really well, in a glass bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
2. Thoroughly rinse your broccoli under cold running water to remove any dirt. Allow excess moisture to drain on a kitchen towel.

3. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop shucked ears of corn into your boiling water and steam just 2-3 minutes. Remove from water to a large bowl and allow to cool a few minutes until you can handle them. Cut kernels off of cobs.

6. Add in the shredded carrots, corn, raisins and pecans into the broccoli bowl.
