Preparation:

Step 1
• Cook the pasta according to package directions; drain and rinse under cold water to cool.
Step 2
• Meanwhile, finely chop the garlic clove on a cutting board, sprinkle with salt, and mash with a chef's knife to form a paste. Add the garlic paste to a large bowl along with the sour cream, yogurt, vinegar, and green onions; season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir the dressing until smooth and set aside.
Step 3
• Cut the kernels from the corn cobs (if desired, break up any clumps of stuck kernels into 2-inch (5-cm) chunks). Add the corn, tomatoes, onion, and arugula to the bowl with the dressing; toss gently to coat. Sprinkle with the cooked bacon.
