Elote Corn
heirloom sweet corn
butter
lime juice
salt
chili powder or paprika (depending on your spice tolerance)
cotija cheese (optional)
crema (optional)
This is a traditional Mexican street food. We like this recipe prepared with Mayo Tosabatchi corn because of its hominy like flavor and texture but any sweet corn will do. Prepare corn-the-cob as usual. Slather with butter, squeeze juice from a lime, and sprinkle with salt and paprika or chili powder and enjoy! Crumbled cheese and/or crema are optional additions.
