Esquites is a cousin to elote--that street food favorite of creamy cheese-coated corn cobs. You can also find this off-the-cob version with Mexican street food vendors. It's great on its own or served as a side dish with grilled meats.
but otherwise super delicious. I only put 1/2 tsp salt and not the 3/4 it calls for and it was still too salty for me. I used parmesan/romano instead of the queso which might have contributed to the salt level. If I make this again I will add only 1/4 tsp salt, 2 T mayo and some more lime
I really enjoyed this but the rest of my family did not care for it. It does have a very strong flavor...
Excellent side to grilled chicken tacos. The sauce was tasty without overpowering the corn. Loved it!
This was very good--great variation. My husband could not stop eating it. Will definitely make it again
I am not a huge corn lover, but I did enjoy this as a side to our Grilled Flank Steak with Chipotle-Orange Mojo tacos. We did not have any cheese to top it with, which probably would have been a nice addition, but it was still tasty. We tried this on top of our tacos as well, also tasty.
