JUAN: ¡Estúpido! You burned the corn and dropped it on the ground.

Paco: Dish it up and charge extra, the gringos will buy it.

I really like Esquirez. I often have it as a side to grilled salmon.

I made Esquites in the past for a gathering, but used canned corn. It turned out fantastic. So much so, I had to share the recipe numerous times. I used a mixture of canned white corn, yellow corn, and canned "fresh off the cob" sweet corn.

I like my corn nekid. I tried the Mexican corn at fairs and while interesting, it doesn’t grab my attention.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Try it on your grill in the husk.
Cook medium heat for 10-12 min, (may vary) rotating the corn every 4 min or so.

When the outer husk has darkened a bit, remove, peal, and add:
-mayo, instead of butter.
-cotija cheese (mexican parmesan) sprinkle on all over
-Tajin spice, several dashes all over.
-lime squeezins
-cilantro (optional)

The corn I get is really good to begin w/ and really doesn't need the extra treatment but if you eat a lot of it in season, it's nice to change it up a bit.

Now I'm hungry.
