Mexican Street Corn Salad
This Mexican Street Corn Salad is a quick and flavorful dish that combines charred corn kernels with a creamy, tangy dressing. By sautéing the corn in oil or butter until it is blistered, you create a smoky base that is then tossed with a mix of mayonnaise, sour cream (or crema), and fresh lime juice. The dish is seasoned with Smuggler’s Mexican Street Corn Seasoning for “bold, buttery heat” and finished with salty Cotija or feta cheese, along with optional fresh green onions and cilantro.
