Corn Preparation

Method

Corn Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Corn

    Remove the husks and silk from the corn cobs. Brush each cob with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.

  3. 3

    Roast the Corn

    Place the prepared corn cobs on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until the corn is tender and slightly charred.

Dressing Preparation

  1. 4

    Mix the Dressing

    In a mixing bowl, combine the guajillo chili powder, lime juice, and mayonnaise. Stir until well blended.

  2. 5

    Add Cheese and Seasoning

    Fold in the Cotija cheese and Tajín® seasoning into the dressing mixture.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Combine Corn and Dressing

    Once the corn is roasted, let it cool slightly, then cut the kernels off the cob and place them in a large bowl.

  2. 7

    Toss to Coat

    Pour the dressing over the corn kernels and toss to coat evenly. Adjust seasoning with additional Tajín® if desired.

  3. 8

    Serve

    Serve the Mexican Street Corn immediately, garnished with extra Cotija cheese and a sprinkle of Tajín® on top.
