Summer wouldn’t be complete without charred corn on the cob, and elotes, grilled Mexican street corn, is among the best. This version gets a hit of gochujang to bring up the spicy-funk factor. After the corn comes off the grill, it gets slathered in a gloriously drippy gochujang-mayo-crema sauce and finished with salty crumbles of Cotija cheese. Sweet, savory, creamy, and spicy, this dish hits every note on the spectrum. A squeeze of tangy lime juice ties it all together.
