      Sides sides SIDES!!! Deffo do a kids treats vid that'd be sweet. Love to see more childhood memories. Also mega thanks for good soup episodes. Helped me a lot when it came to cooking allergy-free for my chronically sick partner. She's doing much better now shes eating from home so thank you so much for teaching me with these vids.

      Saludos, en la Cd. de Mexico al elote en vaso le dicen esquite pero al norte de México le dicen elote en vaso por ende es normal que en el sur de Texas lo conozcan así elote en vaso.

    I’m from Brownsville. I grew up on elote and taquitos. Great dishes. I do my version of a lazy elote with canned corn. Drain the corn and toast it on a skillet with some oil. Get it nice and toasted then season with lemon pepper salt. Let it cool and add all your toppings. I could eat it everyday. Love the content!! 👍👍

    This was always a food-cart treat whenever the family would go into Reynosa for the day. I think you did a great job representing this dish, but also showing it in an elevated version, as well. Thanks for sharing and bring on more side dishes, please!

    Last year I had Elote from a street vendor at the tamale festival in Somerton, AZ. They roasted the corn on an open vertical flame, sort of like how you roast meat for Al Pastor tacos. I've never seen it done that way before. It was great.

    • @acooknamedMatt

      That’s pretty smart actually. Good way to pump out some flame roasted corn

    I LOVE Elote so much---I used to grow a few stalks of corn just so I could make elote out of every ear!
    The guy who showed me how to make it roasted the ears whole in the husk, by digging a hole and dumping coals from his grill into it, a light covering of sand and then the ears, then burying them and he even tamped it down with his foot. Then almost an hour later he dug them out, carefully rinsed them off, shucked them and made elote. Now, I never buried mine, I just grilled them ON the grill *LOL* but I grew up in WI and grilling ears of corn was not new to me, just all the fixings. I have kinda messed with seasoning corn in a similar way but your video is a game-changer for me in that regard. THANKS!!!

    I remember a guy that had an old ice cream cart bicycle that would ride around the neighborhood selling elote. Helados? No! Elote! One of my favorite memories was my 4 year old son, me and my dad sitting on my parent's porch eating corn from the same guy that had been selling it for decades. Elote is a staple in my house still. My very white wife even learned to make it in my absence. She doesnt cook, but she makes elote

    • @acooknamedMatt
      @acooknamedMatt  2 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      That’s so cool. The only thing she makes is elote also is pretty telling how many of us love it

    I'll have to try it with Queso Fresco, I usually eat it with Cotija. I also like the corn milk, you could use that as a base for Creamed corn.

    Add lime juice to mayo, slather mayo on husked corn, shake on Tajin (sweet chili powder and lime juice crystals), *blacken* on the grill, return to mayo pool in tray to rest for a minute.
    This method revives and plumps back up even older picked more starchy corn...make sure to blacken that mayo! the more the better!

    Hi Matt!
    Love your channel! At the Del Mar fair in San Diego they have a huge stand with wood grills grilling corn on the cob cob with the skins still on.. they would peel it down when it is fresh off the grill and you can get it with butter and Parmesan!!!
    I could eat a bunch!!
    Can you do a series about Mexican cheeses and Mexican crema??
