Frequently Asked Questions

What to do with corn esquites?

Serve the corn salad as a taco with pulled pork or chicken, on top of nachos, as a tostada, as loaded tots, or mix it into a potato salad or pasta salad. For a unique twist, sprinkle the corn esquites recipe with crushed hot Cheetos. Instead of serving it like a salad, serve it as they do in Mexico and make street corn in a cup.

What is esquites mexican food?

Esquites is a corn-based Mexican street food typically served in a cup. Corn kernels are taken off the husk and combined with mayonnaise, lime juice and tangy cotija cheese then sprinkled with chili powder. Scallions, chopped jalapeño and/or cilantro is sometimes added to the mix.

What is the best cheese for esquites?

Tangy Cotija cheese is typical in esquites, but queso fresco, another Mexican crumbling cheese, offers a lighter flavor and a creamier texture if that is your preference. And finally, if you like the heat, try adding a chopped jalapeño or serrano to the dish in place of (or in addition to) the scallion in this version.

How do you cook defrosted corn on the cob?

Over medium high heat add a dab of butter and a drizzle of olive oil to a skillet (in equal parts). Cook defrosted corn until it’s warm and cooked through. Turn off the heat. Stir in the mayo, sour cream, lime juice, cotija, cilantro, onion, salt, and chili powder until the cheese starts to melt. Garnish with more toppings and serve hot. Enjoy!
