Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Blistered shishito pizza with onions and Monterey Jack

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute feta cheese for cotija cheese.

    I have yet to make an esquites / elotes style corn salad that we didn't devour. I added diced shallot & Fresno chiles to the pan with the corn and we thought the finely sliced romaine was a nice touch. I used Tajin seasoning for the chili powder as it was out for the main anyways. This is worth a repeat.

    I have tried a wide array of Esquites style salads. Always a little different and great with peak season corn.

    This is a really special salad! Highly recommend with corn in season now.

    Made this to go with a Mexican beef main dish. It's still winter so no fresh corn, but used a 10 oz bag of frozen corn which worked fine. Three of us ate it all and enjoyed.
